Just saw this on the local paper this morning.

A kayaker is missing on a lake north of Raleigh, NC.  A man was heard
calling for help by someone at a boat ramp.  A kayak has been found but no
body or man.  Saturday and Sunday the air temperatures were in the upper
50's to maybe mid 60s.  Prior to this weekend air temps have usually been
in the 30's-40's.  The previous weekend barely got to 34 as a high.  Last
week there was ice on the lake, ponds, and creeks near me.  I live an hour
or so south of Falls Lakes where this incident happened.

The man was last seen wearing shorts and a t shirt.  :(

Later,
Dan
