Just checked the weather. Not good at all!!! I'm putting the ice stuff away and getting out the boat and swim shorts. Upper 30's to upper 40's for the rest of the month starting next Monday. Only 3 days with a below freezing temp. It's not looking like we're getting an ice year. I can't remember a year without ice since I started ice fishing 10 years ago or so.

Check out the accuweather monthly forecast. They show the history average, we are definitely raising the average this year. Average for most of January is high of 33 and a low of 17. Why can't this be an average year?

Think it will be open tomorrow? Im trying to get a goose hunt in

Forget the monthly forecast Frost.  They can't accurately predict what's going to happen tomorrow, much less the rest of the month.  It'll get cold...just not as quickly as we'd like.

South end by dam,looked slushed /iced over at 6 pm when we went by. Shenango was wide open and saw geese on it when we went over this evening. Good luck.

ya the local weather says warmest day being 38 with the low that night of 12 so we will be fine

Tthanks slab habit figured it would a bit but I got trapping gloves and a sledge to solve that lol Gona be a cold wet hunt tomorrow hope we jack em up weather man is always wrong ....

I know the weather is never right especially the extended forecast but I was just saying that the monthly outlook after the next 15 days just has the average over however long they've been keeping records. It said 33 as the average high and 17 for the average low. So far tho this month has been way out of the average.

Lots of snow and still snowing up here, I'm hunting geese in a field tomorrow. Taking the shovel and making a nice big feeding hole with green grass showing. I'm gonna ring the breakfast bell for them with that and about 10doz full bodies and 4doz shells. If nothing else at least the spread will look good haha. Ton of birds up here if only they'll cooperate with me

Frost.....the decoys always look nice my friend but done matter if the birds done show I didn't go this morning was at the bar till close New it wasent good idea
