This time of year the water areas are freezing, but wherever there is running water, they tend to open up again. Do you know that creeks & streams continue to flow beneath that coating of ice? Upstate there are many winter activities that occur on the frozen lake and this time of year always poses the question "is there enough ice? Is it safe to go out there?" The answer is never a solid one, but ask the ice fisherman. They have to drill through the ice to set up their lines - they can tell you how thick the ice is in spots.
Interesting info to know:

Your painting looks really cold! Your ice information is interesting. We lived in Michigan and there was always someone slipping through ice on water that made news. Sometimes the outcome was not good.
Your winter scenes are beautiful, Nan. Great info on ice thickness. I've often wondered how thick the ice was for those Ice Road Truckers.
