misfish Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Was just talking ice fishing and how the lake here seems to be freezing later then it use to. One fella brought up this,,,,,,,,,,,,, http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/asiapcf/03/12/japan.earthquake.tsunami.earth/ So I get home and look it up. Anyone buy this? Is this possible? He also said it threw off GPS marks from then too now. I just found it interesting. I have no idea, but thought I would ask the " KNOW "people here.

OhioFisherman Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Just my grasp of the whole deal, and I could be wrong! Earth has a series of moving plates, movement is not steady or or easy, stress builds in places. A rapid release of stress, movement causes earthquakes? If the plates move, and the GPS satellites don't? A change in GPS location results? Simcoe freezing later? More people? more hot air! Global warming!

spincast Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I'd blame all the elections we had in the last couple years - too much hot air out there in the atmosphere - before that one, personally..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I can remember putting the hut out on Cook Bay before the Xmas holidays back in the '80s. Ice came earlier and went earlier. Remember sitting in the boat a number of times at the Perch fest in T shirt and shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bacon Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I don't think the quake would cause a significant change in weather. The link mentions a land mark moving eight feet. How much colder does it get if you are eight feet further north?We have had significant changes in the weather. That could certainly make a difference. I wouldn't surprise me if it freezes later this year due to the hot summer. The larger the lake, the longer it will retain the summer heat.

mike rousseau Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Ice up (give or take a few weeks) has been the same for at least 10 years... from what I've seen here anyway... Local trout pond used to open Jan 1st and some years the ice was dicey... some years there was lots of ice... this year guys were on ice Dacember 18th in some spots while I was in my boat on the main river... I find wind is your biggest factor... more wind in December means less ice... and it was a windy month in December Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnote Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 I wouldnt rule it out as being a minute factor however, when you add all the other factors like wind, precipitation, water temperature, el nino/la nina, and very importantly timing, etc.. etc... id imagine the overall effect would be slim indeed. Some years it freezes quick others not so much, weather patterns are clearly trending towards more violent and volatile events so it remains to be seen what the effect is on ice building in the future.
