Local police are issuing a few safety reminders ahead of the Wawa derby.
Emphasizing that "no ice is safe ice", Superior East OPP Constable Rob Sanchioni acknowledges the weather conditions may mean thicker ice coverage on local bodies of water, but to still be careful.
Sanchioni has more advice for snowmobilers.
Constable Sanchioni notes Superior East OPP will be patrolling, backed up by the OPP's Snowmobile, ATV, and Vessel Enforcement (SAVE) Team.
