A thin ice warning is posted at Whites Pond in Concord, New Hampshire

A thin ice warning is posted at White's Pond in Concord, New Hampshire January 6, 2012. Unusually mild winter weather is spoiling the fun for hockey players, skaters and ice fisherman across the Northeast as officials are warning them to stay off uncommonly thin ice. Fish and game officials in several northern states have issued advisories in recent days, saying ice conditions are unsafe on lakes that typically wear a winter coating of 10-inch-thick (25 cm) ice.
