"There's no such thing as 100 percent safe ice," the state parks department said.
Arctic temperatures have gripped southern New England over the past few days, brining temperatures in the low 20s and teens and below-zero wind chills. Despite the frigid weather, Rhode Island firefighters warned residents that most ponds and lakes are not safe for skating.
"Stay off the ice — it's not safe," the East Greenwich firefighter's union said over the weekend. "Although it's been cold, it hasn't been cold long enough."
According to the union, fire departments around the state have received calls for people and animals that fell through the ice.
