You guy's up north may get ice, but we get Eichhornia Crassipes. The invasive plant plaques the south delta, choking harbors and slow moving sloughs. the only thing that gets through this mess is a Air boat. Department of Waterways understaffed for this problem, sprays herbicide from a aluminum john boat and several airboats. What they miss comes back faster than they can kill it. the darker green areas are small areas they missed. As it stands no one can leave this harbor. it wraps around props, fouls water inlets and sea strainers. It's heavy so it doesn't push out of the way easily. The hyacinth impacts most of the south Delta beginning in late Sept and hangs out until spring. up on the Sacramento and Steamboat slough the current is strong enough to keep the hyacinth at bay. An import from South America by way of backyard fish ponds.
