Every once in a while you just get these events where there is no hope. Occasionally (every 20-25 years) we'll get an advectional freeze where the wind blows out of the NNE and the lake doesn't help us. This year we had some radiational freezes that took out a lot of production that was more than 1000' from the lake. Normally, there is a good temperature gradient between the lake and the land and that creates some wind, but if you have had cold weather settle in for a few days all bets are off.
