RIVERDALE, N.D. (AP) - Lake Sakakawea has been declared free of ice.

The Army Corps of Engineers says the Missouri River reservoir in North Dakota was declared ice-free on Monday, April 28.

Last year, the lake wasn’t declared ice-free until May 13, the third-latest ice-out date on the lake. The latest was May 17, 1979, and the second-latest was May 14, 1970.
