My party is around Ten towns for a while and it’s an early winter (accursed tower -> legacy of the shard adventures) so I do have a question: do the lakes by Ten towns freeze during winter? Even if the winter is colder and harsher due to Auril’s chosen one’s presence?

1)
In spring and fall, they all get “shore ice” (freeze right along the shoreline, wherever there isn’t water flowing into them). This extends farther and farther out, and gets thicker and thicker (so it can be walked on) until in the cold heart of winter, almost…2)
…every part of all three lakes, barring the river mouths, can safely be walked on (and across), and fishing is done by drilling holes and letting down lines. Auril's chosen would make all ice thicker and more reliable, and even the rivers might freeze over.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 3, 2020
