I thought I would post up some photos of the frozen landscape around here. For yaw to enjoy. Its been in the single digits and the lagoons are about 2" thick currently. Its been fairly cold enough out to freeze over the salt water and the cedar water around here.  For salt water it tends to start freezing around 15-20 F out, standing water is closer to 25-30. But the tide movement breaks up the ice on its own when it cycles between 32 and above, etc. I was having a discussion with @Mopar1973Man the other night on the phone about the salt water, and its been years since I've seen Great Bay freeze up like it has to where it's thick enough to withstand the wave action and tide changes.

This last one is the Bay, that rises and falls about 4 feet. The ice shelf goes out a ways now, I say at least 400 yards now.

 

This was the other day.

Here you can see where the frozen bay starts and ends before the fluid part of the bay is.

Cool pictures, that kind of thing happens when you have minimum sunlight in a day to warm things up.
