Ice is definitely getting better in the Metro Area, MN. Some vehicles are starting to drive out on SOME of the lakes. There is no consistency and every lake is different. Don't take any chances and make sure to check conditions for yourself. Seeing anywhere from 10-14" on a majority of the lakes. A lot of the slush and snow has gone away though, so you can get around again a little easier. Looks like a nice stretch of cold days are ahead of us and hopefully we make some more ice!
