    Its only been 2 days I cant imagine there is more than 1-2″. I am very happy it froze over after the snow, I was out on a lake today and the ice was terrible with patches of slush, open water and very soft ice. Looking forward to the Croix being safe

    Four tundra swans — part of a flock we’ve seen this week veeing around Upper Lake St. Croix — were bedded down in the snow just south of the tip of Anderson point around two p.m.today (Fri). My spruce tip pickin buddy surmised that their feet were frozen into the ice. Have seen this breed of swans hunkered down looking like mini-mountains in the bitter wind at 20 below near the open water up at the Gull Lake dam near Brainerd. Somebody must be feeding em or maybe they just missed the TV commercial offering snorkling in the Carribean “just a three hour flight away”…they seem to be attracted by open water there and at Hudson and Monticello…so far have not seen them skiing, boarding, snomoing or chasing bikini wahinis.
