although, I'm thinking the C-Nile will be on the water before the Mount... as long as it's clear from Glendale to Mark, it's enough ice out for me!

If the prevailing winds are from NW, is Wolfeboro most often the last port to be clear? Does anybody track that?

I think its typically Center Harbor that lags behind the others, but could be mistaken. Things to blow out to the south and tend to clog up Wolfeboro, but as far as areas iced in (not moving ice) I think Center Harbor lasts longer.

Yes. On many occasions a strong NW wind will clear the ice between Welch and Belknap point sending it across the Broads and down to Wolfeboro Bay. Normally the ice hangs in longer north of Timber/40 Islands and in Wolfeboro Bay. Over the past 25+ years we have been able to get to Welch about a week prior to official ice out.
