Calculation says -8 deg at -1 and 71% humidity.
That means ice can't form until the temp falls below the dew point.

That's RELATIVE humidity. % of what it CAN hold. But its so cold that even at 100% RH there would hardly be any moisture in the air.

Also, most modern helicopters have built in de-icing systems. Icing risk is generally only when in a few degrees of freezing and humidity is high. Then the trailing edges can create a low pressure/temperature zone that allows liquid water to be deposited on the control surface where it freezes.
They fly helicopters in Antarctica all the time without issue.

I'm trying to figure out why this idea didn't get much traction in the other thread...

Helicopters fly up here in extreme cold too. Getting them started is the hard part. Unless they kept indoors.
I like it!
Well latest update on the fugitive , sheriff site says they think he made it into the river and out the other side....... he will be a perpsicle as Dave said very soon. Dude is freaking nuts.
Maybe he is coming to your house!

Had some yummy grilled deer steaks for dinner. My son, the butcher gave us a cooler full of meat. Mostly beef - Delmonicos, NY Strips, Pork chops, bunch of ground venison...
And you didn't call? We could have watched the Steelers win and Ravens lose and eat while doing it

Nah, if he crossed the river, he's heading the opposite direction.
depends on where exactly he crossed it. That are curves and varies. This time of year, the depth can vary from knee high to 30 feet in some spots. Width, widest in that area I'd guess to be a couple hundred yards . It gets much wider down stream.How deep/far across is the water?
We had home made chicken stir fry with fried rice

And it's not frozen? Must be damn cold! I would think if he got in more than a few feet deep for more than a few seconds - he'd be done

Oven fried chicken sandwiches along with mushroom, spinach and ham soup...and warm homemade chocolate chip muffins for dessert.

He had to be showing up on the FLIR like a beacon in those temps...unless he has already frozen to death.

what level are you playing? Other than goofing off with it for a few minutes when I posted the link, I haven't played in years.
As I say that, an ambulance just went screaming down the road that direction, I imagine they found him
