That graph is very telling. It especially shows the change in the last 40 years. My anecdotal perceptions were wrong. Looks to me like an indication of Climate Change. |

Thanks! The graph supports my less than scientific memory of the ice going out in late April when I was a child. Now I plan to have the dock in and camp open in mid April (certainly by the third week or so). A year like this year seems late - then again, maybe I’m just less patient as I get older!

In case anyone missed it here is why there was no Ice-Out yesterday. It should happen this morning. (photo by Emerson Aviation)

It would be interesting to try and superimpose 10 year avg low and high April temperatures (if you can find reliable temperature data back that far) to see if there is correlation, though maybe a combined March-April average would be a better view of temperature effect on melting. One could definitely get lost down this rabbit hole if they had the time. |

Also, different methods of determining Ice-Out have been used over the years since 1887.

Each and every year, it's the same ice out there, on top of the lake. What happens is that ice sinks down to the bottom in April, and then the same ice re-surfaces back up in January.
Is the cycle of ice ...... been going on around here since 1621.

Maybe.....
Perhaps the ice was gone before midnight on the 23rd (which was this old moth-eaten bear's guess). 🐻

So... the Pilgrims had something to do with the "cycle of ice"?

Why yes, they did, not in an historical sense, but in a chronological sense. Prior to that winter back in 1621, there was no records kept, but starting on Feb 1, 1621, thy Pilgrims established an ice out cash lottery known as the Ice Cycle Lottery which quickly became known as the cash icicle.

For the climate changers: 131 years ago there were no dock bubblers. 75 years ago, there were no dock bubblers. 50 years ago, only a few. Now, in some areas, you can't walk from shore to solid ice. Even islanders are using bubblers where not so long ago there was no electricity. Do such things affect the waters/ice? Perhaps not individually, but combined with other human activity... |

Ice out has been declared but at the wrong date and time.
It should have been declared at 3pm on Monday as all the polls indicated it would. I demand a recount, investigation and a do over!!! |
