Frozen over?

Post by AdsBot [Google] » Sat Jan 26, 2008 12:11 am

Is Beaver Lake in Issaquah frozen over? By the sounds of it Green Lake in downtown Seattle is frozen, and I would assume Lake Alice in Fall City would be frozen solid too. From reading the recent reports it sounds like most lakes are frozen over.

I seriously doubt that Green Lake (king county) is frozen. There is a big difference between those little lakes up on the plateau, Alice and the Beav. I mean. Here in the city it really hasn't stayed below freezing all that much except at night.

Yep Quad as of Yesterday (Friday) Greenlake was frozen over except for right around the boathouse. Surprised me too. I took my canoe down there - I tried to launch by the tennis courts and made it out about 50 yards before I gave up and came back - ice was a constant 1.5" thick.

Wow! I guess I stand corrected. Maybe I haven't been reading the thermometer lately... I just don't see lakes freezing until you have temps in the low 20's for a solid week. I guess that is why when I was in my float tube in Green lake a couple weeks ago... I thought I was gonna die when I finally got out!

Beaver is not quite frozen, but getting there. Continue with the 25 degree stuff and it will freeze.

Thanks iPodrodder. I think I will hit Beaver tomorrow and gut the cold. If it's not frozen I'm ok. Alice is a little higher and much smaller than Beaver so I think that it will be frozen. Good news on Beaver. Temps look like they should moderate later on here...I'm reading 39F which is good with a strong SE wind of 14G23...so the ice may be thinning...

I think Beaver got a little coat of ice in the last few days but melted. Things are starting to warm up for now.

See my new report on Beaver. Beaver has a 1/4" layer of ice covering about 1/4th of the entire lake...it shifts around and it's tough to break thru. It was cold and snowing today 34F and water temp 37.5F.
