Glendale is more closed in that it was yesterday. We did see a truck pulling a trailer with a small green boat leaving Ellacoya this morning.

You know the April 1st Winni Marine, Weirs Channel, weather cam says the water temp is 37-degrees. The coldest the surface water ever gets is 33.8 on about January 31 to February 1.

So, how long can the ice last with the surface water temp at 37-degrees?

Here's another question. Does the ice melt into the lake water or does it desiccate similar to ice and snow on the land which vaporizes into the air powered by sunshine?
