Saw a lake in northern Minnesota that should've been frozen solid last week
Ice-out on Lake Vermilion happened 19 days earlier than the 30 year average, and the resort owner said he's never seen open water this early in April, so if you're still treating this like a slow drip problem, what's it going to take for the people near you to notice?

Wow, 19 days early is wild, and that resort owner saying he's never seen it like this in April really gets me. So what happens when the ice goes out before the walleye even finish spawning, or when the mayflies hatch weeks ahead of the fish that count on them? At what point does "weird year" stop being a one-off and start being the new normal folks just shrug at? The people living up there see it with their own eyes every spring, so what's the actual excuse for looking the other way?
