Many school buses cancelled due to icy roads

Icy conditions have led to school bus cancellations across midwestern Ontario on Thursday.

All buses in north Wellington County have been cancelled, as have many in Huron-Perth. Grey-Bruce had just a few school bus cancellations. The full list can be found by clicking here.

Roads across the region were left icy and slick following Wednesday's low pressure system that brought a mixed bag of rain, freezing rain, and snow.

Drivers are reminded to take it slow as ice can be hard to spot on the pavement.

As of Thursday morning, Environment Canada had no weather alerts in effect for midwestern Ontario.
