This deadly first autumn ice

12 November 2021, Friday

Today, inspectors of the Kazan branch of the SISV Center of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia in the Republic of Tatarstan conducted a reconnaissance of the inner reservoirs of the Kazan city.
On the lake in Victory Park, the surface of the water is already covered with a crust of ice. Measurements showed that the thickness of the ice is only one and a half centimeters. The same situation is on the lakes along Chuikov Street and other water bodies of the city.
GIMS inspectors warn - be vigilant and careful! Do not leave children unattended near reservoirs! Don't go out on thin ice!
Transparent ice with a bluish or greenish tint, without air bubbles and at least 7 centimeters thick is safe for pedestrians to cross.
