This is one of the warmer February’s I can remember. Strange to see so many days above freezing. Nottawasaga Bay should be frozen solid by now, but as you can see, the Bay is wide open.

Sunday, February 9th, 2020 – ice out in the bay. It was cold overnight (-17) with gentle winds so the ice froze a good distance off shore. By afternoon, the wind shifted and the ice was breaking up again.
Wednesday, February 12th, 2020 – This picture taken from the fast east end of Wasaga Beach close to the outlet of the Nottawasaga River – approximately 1.5 km east of the main beach.
Wednesday, February 12th, 2020 – Looking across lonely provincial park parking lots to the east of the main beach.
Friday, February 14th – Looking out across the beach from near 16th street. A very cold night (-24C) means a substantial increase in shore ice.
Saturday, February 15th, 2020 – Parking at my usual spot near 18th street as I head down the beach and back on a perfect winter day.
