Default The stream froze

I've lived in these parts for almost 30 years, and I've never seen ice on
the local stream before. The stream rises from a spring less than half a
mile away, but last night's -13C did its best, and a couple of feet along
the edges are solid ice down its whole length at the bottom of the estate.

Looks like we might have bottomed out already tonight. Currently -7.4C, up
from -8.1C an hour ago.
