   Yes, Some of yours are a bit of a jump as well. I sort of expect there   
   to be about a 15f or so change from day to night but much more than   
   that you notice. As we get into February, especially the second half,   
   we will start to get a lot more days above freezing and March is the   
   change over month when we get more rain than snow and fewer nights   
   dipping below freezing, but still frequently enough that I can't put   
   in my water system until some time in April without worrying about   
   it freezing up at night. Usually no damage is done since the outside   
   lines are flexible plastic but there is about 400 feet of it, much of   
   it going over bare bedrock, so it is totally exposed to the cold.   
      
   The other problem I had in the past, I hope it's not as bad these   
   days with warmer overall temperatures, is not being able to put in   
   the water system until the ice comes off of Georgian Bay. I can   
   remember years putting the foot valve stand in around April 10th   
   and getting cuts on my legs from ice floes drifting in and hitting   
   me when I was in the water. One year I had to put in the foot valve   
   3 times because ice kept drifting in, catching the marker float, and   
   dragging the stand into shore..   B)   
      
   Last night and tonight we'll drop to about -4f again but there are   
   a couple of days this week that may get up slightly above freezing   
   so it's still bouncing around.
