Dangerous Conditions Near Lake Simcoe
The York Regional Police Marine Unit is warning residents that with the recent mild temperatures set to continue this week, the ice on Lake Simcoe has almost completely deteriorated and rivers and streams may be swollen and running faster than usual.
Lake Simcoe is now completely open in sections and police are advising everyone to be aware of weather and lake conditions before venturing out.
Citizens are urged to warn children to stay away from lake shores, river banks and creeks and ponds, including the Maskinonge, Black and Pefferlaw rivers. Melting ice and increasing water flows make these bodies of water fast-moving and dangerous.
