Looking out at ice right now

It's just a film. The clam & cold has allowed it to build clear across Country Pond in Kingston NH where I live..

Usually can get out before the New Year on a few inches - just enough to catch a pickerel in the shallows, didn't look good at first, now I think we are on track again.

There's a limit on these?

Thinking of a road trip after New Years if we don't have any here yet.

A few days in the low-mid 20s and we'll have plenty of ice.
