Sunny calm day with no rainfall in past 24 hours. Shoreline is much further out than in past years testing here…..now a sand beach with rocks that were under water before and depth measurement taken out much more. A yellow boom in place around much of the lake which I am guessing is there due to roadwork having been done along this highway all summer long and continuing now?

Sunny and calm day. No rainfall in past 24 hours.Seagulls, kids fishing off a nearby point, beaver damn across the highway, and lots of garbage strewn around the roadsides. Ice is about half off the lake and the test location where we usually do it had ice still along the shore so we did this test from a point not too far away from it instead where the water was open.
