We’ve had our first real cold snap of winter this week, with temperatures at the Ridge dipping into the teens overnight. The wind made it feel even colder! When we awoke today, we found the first skim of ice on the pond.
Most of the water remains open, and temperatures this afternoon should warm enough to keep the rest of the pond from freezing, and the forecast for the rest of the week suggests warmer temps again, so hopefully this touch of Old Man Winter’s icy grip won’t last long. Weren’t none too eager to have him settle in for an extended stay!
