Hey Bob, just wondering do you know if the lake is completely Frozen?

Hello All,
NOAA's forecast for our area tomorrow says partly sunny, with a high of 40 for the morning. Rain is forecast between 3 and 5 tomorrow afternoon and early evening and a calm wind (for once). There is a 1/4" layer of sleet on the ground, but the roads should be cleared, though forest roads might be icy in spots.
There are volunteers covering all 12 routes. To the participants: thank you for participating in the PABE count this year. If you have walking routes, dress properly and be careful out there.
The lake at Bald Eagle SP is about 75% iced in, but the water from the Dam almost to the winter launch is open. Hunter's Cove is iced in and people might be out ice fishing at the Sunken Road overlook (on HC). Of course, the Marina docks are ice-free and there is an ice-free stretch around at the Rte. 26 causeway bridge at Howard.
You may email your report forms as a Word file, Excel file or send the link to your eBird report for the day. You can also mail a written list to me at Bob Snyder, P.O. Box 603, Howard, PA 16841.
If you need to call me, my cell is 814-753-2629: you can leave a message if I don't pickup.
Be safe, Good Luck and Good Birding,
Bob Snyder
