"Spring is early; ice out declared April 1"
"Strong winds and 70-degree temperatures kept the final days of March warm but it took until April to melt the last of the lake ice."


White Bear Lake ice out historian Jan Holtz-Kraemer declared April 1 as the official 2010 ice out date. The final ice traces disappeared in the lake’s north basin sometime in the early morning hours."


“There’s not a speck of ice on that lake. I rode my bike everywhere,” said Holtz-Kraemer, following a morning ride around the lake. “Last year was April 11, so we’re early this year.""
