OPP are warning the public to be cautious when out on the ice. They say around this time of year, near-shore ice is often much thicker and safer than ice further out. OPP say clear blue ice is the strongest while white or opaque ice is much weaker. Ice that has a honeycombed look should be avoided altogether. Heavy snow on frozen lakes and rivers can insulate the ice below, causing the ice to freeze slower. Be particularly careful when you're out with snowmobiles or vehicles. They want parents to be mindful while children are out of school, as they may venture out on frozen ponds, ditches or area waterways. Children should never play on or near ice covered bodies of water unless directly supervised by an experienced adult. Always tell someone when you're going out on the ice because if you are missing, rescue crews can narrow their search and potentially save your life.
