Well, the "forecast" high of +17 for tomorrow was changed. Now expecting +7. The snow that recently fell has already started to melt. It will likely be all melted by the end of next week.

Still water? No that would be a thin layer of ice.

The following pics were taken in Wascana Park.
Today Oct. 26, 2001

Top) View near Willow Island. Geese on thin ice.

1&2 - Row 1) View from the Willow Island Overlook. East side of Willow Island.

See that small black object on the ice(left side of picture) in the first one? That is a electrical connection for the skating area. Its placed out there before freeze up. The cable is on the lake bottom.
