Snow Day (Bus Cancellation) Outlook for Wednesday, February 24, 2021
/
An Alberta Clipper is expected to spread heavy snowfall throughout northern parts of Central and Eastern Ontario with the heaviest snow occurring just in time for the afternoon bus run. As a result, we do expect a few bus cancellations on Wednesday although there is a level of uncertainty because it will require the school board or bus consortium to consider the conditions in the future rather than just in the morning which will likely not be that bad. The highest probability exists through the North Bay and Parry Sound region where the school board tends to pay more attention to current weather alerts so we’ve given them a 75% chance of a snow day. All other regions through Central and Eastern Ontario range from a 25-50% chance with a lower probability outside of the current Environment Canada weather statement. The rest of Southern Ontario has a less than 5% chance of a snow day with little snowfall accumulation expected during the day on Wednesday.
If there are any cancellations tomorrow morning, you can be sure we’ll be up bright and early beginning at 6 AM with our bus cancellations live blog to keep you updated.
Disclaimer: Instant Weather has zero authority when it comes to bus and school closures. It is completely up to the school boards, bus companies, and local authorities as well as being up to parents to decide what is best for their children. This is simply our best guess based on our forecast. Also note that due to the current pandemic, some school boards have changed their policies on school bus cancellations. Some will continue the school day in a virtual format should there be school bus cancellations - check with your local board for more details.
