The last time it froze was in 1989. Very seldom do we get temps this low in NC.

When was the last time White lake froze?
I know we have had some severe cold that has made its way far south this year, but does ice happen yearly or once every 10 years? Just curious.... I was up in southern Maine just before New Years and saw -24. |

Don, Understand that Donalds statement is open to interpretation and pretty much determined by where the person lives. As an example, this water is not cool or cold to some:  There are even some who can't make it to annual new years barefoot runs due to the supposed cold temps!

I realize you are likely kidding, but the lakes in North Carolina do not freeze. You can get some ice in the back corners of some coves but it is very thin. The water temps for this date are cool to cold, but it does not stop the majority of us from enjoying the water and water sports. A lot of the event is about seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Also, enjoying and testing driving other CC Boats.
However, we do have 4 inches of snow today and there is no bread or milk available in both Carolinas today. |

I was actually considering it for the first time, but April. Has the lake thawed out by then??
Will there be another event towards the Left Coast? NC is a long drive from California. |

I am going out on a limb to say it is highly likely there will be a pre-event ski day (0r 2) at Badin prior to the drive east

Don't underestimate me Tim. I actually missed White Lake last year. Had fun with several attendees the day before at Greg's then passed on heading down to white lake the next day because,,,,well, just because.

I am 100% absolutely positively irrefutably going to be there, unless I'm not.
