Madison CBCers will be pleased to know that the big lakes are still largely open, especially Mendota. I just went up to the 9th floor here at the library, which has an excellent panoramic view to the north, and there are just a couple of ice shelves extending out from Maple Bluff on the east side. Mendota looks to be at least 90% open. Monona had a little more ice cover this morning (at least on the east end, which is what I can see from my bus,) but still some large areas of open water. Good counting, everyone who's out tomorrow! Find that Barrow's!
