The sun and rain finally took away the three inches of snow we got on Friday.
After the incredible warm temperatures of two weeks ago, the weather has turned back to more-or-less normal.
It still looks like a record-early ice-out for all the lakes of Northwestern Ontario. In the Thunder Bay area the small lakes are already open and the big ones probably will join them in a matter of days.
Up at Red Lake we have heard the ice disappeared last week from the little lakes along the highway, just south of town. The usual rule-of-thumb is for Red Lake to follow two weeks later.
So despite the return of normal, cooler, temperatures, we can still be looking at an ice-out on Red Lake of approximately April 15.
It can't come soon enough for Sam and me. I'm always itching to get to work on camp, remodel cabins and make repairs before the guests arrive. Sam looks forward to using this mobile dog bed that is just perfect for him to keep watch on the place, when he isn't napping, that is.
