Only one day earlier than last year

“Ice-In” was officially declared on Clear Lake Tuesday morning, Nov. 12.

Water Department Superintendent Adam Theiss said he was “surprised, but not surprised” to make the announcement.

“Monday’s winds kept ice from forming, but the cold snap eventually locked the shore in with ice.  I wouldn’t walk out on it, but I could stand on ice all the way around the lake,” said Theiss.
