Here is a link to an ice thickness safety chart published by the PA Fish & Boat Commission. We used a similar chart on ice safety pamphlets that we have available at the sportsmen shows.

Hello to everybody! At this time of the year when the ice is just forming and people are just itching to do some ice fishing, be careful and do not fall through the ice! We are in Southern New England not the north!

this is great and thanks to encon for keeping us informed. How can we tell how thick the ice is without walking out and drilling a hole?
I work third shift and would love to go but if I'm the only one out there theres no way to tell till I drill. I know with all the snow it's even worse.
fishing has been my best and truest friend for the past 35 years!

Yes, thank EnCon. No matter what I don't
go on the ice unless I got two or 3 big guys walking 10' in front of me. \:D

Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
