I witnessed a 20 thousand acre lake go from no ice to 95% frozen in 15 minutes today. It did open up some this afternoon once the wind started blowing. It was a cool site to behold.
Here is a picture of the "lake" this was all open at 5:00 am.

This is a cold year. Only small open holes on strip pits open besides the power plant cooling lake. Windchill approaching 40 below Monday morning.
Even down here in the south, it is COLD. 6 degrees here with wind chill between -15 and -20. Us southern boys aren't real used to this kind of cold.
I'm not liking this weather at all. :(
The ducks are safe as long as its -12 wind chill here in Va... This am it was 61 degrees its dipped into the high 20s now and supposed to be single digits in the am. 54 degree change in 24 hrs... Crazy
This morning it was -12 with a windchill of -27 when I left for work. Its a toasty 0 right now. At noon Saturday it was 55.
Yesterday afternoon it was 5 wind chill was -25 and snowing to beat hell. Killed a pile of geese though. Had 4 specks 4 honkers and 22 snow geese only took two picture because I couldn't feel my fingers to work the phone. No kill pile pictures either was the last thing on my mind. Sorry

Did the birds fly right at you, asking to be warmed up in your frying pan? ;)
Snow+Bitter Cold= Rediculously dumb birds
So birds are like humans? :D
Just like city folks looking for bread, milk, and gas! They just get plumb retarded! Lol.

Hey now... We have some city folk on here too.... :) I sure did see a run on all the fancy salt at home depot. Had plenty of simple rock salt though, so I was good.
