Kincardine Beach Safety is warning residents while the beach might be showing signs of freezing over, shelf ice is a blanket and can have hidden holes leading to people falling into the lake.
The build up of ice volcanoes comes from waves pushing water upwards and the water continues to freeze, making large volcanoes with thin ice around them and does not make it safe to walk over.
Frigid water temperatures can cause cold water shock and hypothermia very quickly and residents are asked to stay off thin ice and the build up of ice volcanoes.
