Snow Day (Bus Cancellation) Outlook for Friday, March 26, 2021
/
A messy winter mix with a risk of prolonged freezing rain is expected to affect northern parts of Southern Ontario beginning early Friday morning. This will likely create hazardous driving conditions and combined with the freezing rain warning issued by Environment Canada, bus cancellations are extremely likely in the affected regions. The highest chance will be through the Parry Sound and North Bay area where the school board is generally more sensitive to winter weather and usually always cancels busses when snow or freezing rain is in the forecast. The freezing rain warning also affects the Huntsville area and given how that school board does school bus cancellations, it’s likely the entire Muskoka region will see buses cancelled even though only the northern part is affected. There is also a 50/50 chance for the Bruce Penisula. Surrounding regions have either a slight to low chance, but it’s very unlikely we’ll see cancellations outside of the main zone.
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.
