The red line is the boundary between open water, above the line, and ice. In the past few days some of the ice is melted. I'd say we have about 50 percent open water at this time.
In past years, the lake would freeze over
completely by about now. Freezing depends not only on temperature, but wind.
I live on Lake Winnisquam, the third largest lake in NH, and it's got a significant amount of fetch. What's more, the lake is oriented north / south which means the wind really gets the water moving.
When the water is choppy,
it's not going to freeze unless the temperature really gets below zero and stays there. The forecast temperatures are daytime highs of 40+ F with brilliant sun starting in a few days. Need I say more?
New Products to Share
If you're a new subscriber, you're in for a real treat. The same goes for you if you're in the group my buddy Dick Daniels is in.
Dick Daniels is a US Navy Captain, former fighter pilot from the Vietnam War. He's been a subscriber since 1997, maybe before. I've had the good fortune to meet Dick and his wife Sue on a few
occasions over the years.
What a blessing it is to have subscribers like Dick and Sue and I hope to meet you one day. Always open each newsletter because when I travel, I try to set aside time for meet ups. For example, my son and I are thinking of doing a BBQ road trip this spring in the south, and each time we go to a restaurant we're going to have a meet up.
Here's the treat. One week ago today I embarked on a massive project. I'm revising each and every column on AsktheBuilder.com.
You have no idea how many months this is going to take, but it's really worth it.
Here's what's in in for YOU:
- Fresh content
- New Product links
- Bullet-point list at top of column for FAST TIPS
- Links to Contractors in your city/town
- New large-format photos when possible
I decided a few days ago to share a link with you to each revised column so you don't miss ANYTHING.
Remember, just about all the columns now have great
LINKS to products I LOVE and USE at my own home. Don't guess if about a product, always see what I use.
A list of columns revised in the past 48 hours is just below and let me tell you, a few of the columns have amazing information you should scan.
