tgs - 7nov19 - salinity effect on freezing point (Tanya, Stan, Trevor). The Great Salt Lake (GSL), Utah lat/long (39.5-42.0,-111.5- -117.7). The GSL's salinity is 270 ppt above ~41.22 N with freezing point of -24 C, and 150 ppt south of ~41.22 N with freezing point -10 C (info from Trevor Alcott). The fresh-water Willard Bay should be excluded from the box around the Great Salt Lake: lat/long 41.3539, -112.102, HRRR i,j = 494,667 (info from Stan and Trevor).

1jun2020: reset the GSL freezing point to be -5 C, and add a check (after call to LakeMain) to keep the lake ice free for the whole year.
