If you have an ice shack still out on the water in the southern half of Manitoba, the province is telling you to take it down ASAP.
Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship advises removing such structures as long as conditions are safe to do so.
Warm temperatures are melting ice from Dauphin Lake to Lake of the Prairies to Lake of the Woods.
Usually, March 31 is the last day for ice shack removal in the south, but the new deadline this year is March 15. For the Red River, it is March 13.
