We ALWAYS have a January thaw, and it ALWAYS gets the recurring questions of ice safety.

Here's one way to look at it...

It took how many days of sub freezing days to form the ice we have? (almost 2 weeks?)
Do you think one warm/wet day can melt all that snow and ice?

NO.

What will most likely happen is that the snow cover will be first to go, and maybe, MAYBE an inch of ice will follow.

Then most standing water will refreeze late Saturday and Sunday.

I am a legend in my own mind!
