All outdoor rinks are closed until further notice due to mild temperatures which have made conditions unsafe.

With temperatures above zero, the ice is creating a light layer of water and slush on the ice surfaces.   

However, temperatures are supposed to start dipping back below zero tonight. 

"Outdoor rinks provide a valuable leisure experience in your own neighbourhood," the City stated on its website.

"The City of North Bay operates a total of 11 rinks, and one skating oval, in the City. Some are supervised by caretakers hired by the City. Others are operated by volunteers."
