Much of the remaining ice remains confined to shallow areas such as shorelines and/or bays, mainly across the northern fringes of Lakes Superior, Michigan, and Huron. Lake Erie remains ice free. Ice across the Great Lakes will likely continue to decay over the next 5 days. This will be the last ice forecast of the 2023-2024 winter season.
