Cornwall Ontario – Buses Cancelled again. This time for a pending snow alert. We’re waking up to 15c with more rain which has caused some flooding. The snow isn’t scheduled to start until the evening which makes this alert kinda hinky.
We’re expecting as much as 15cm of snow overnight with close to 20 more cm on Saturday.
CFN will update with further weather alerts and warning.
Alerts for: Cornwall – Morrisburg
Warnings
4:32 AM EST Friday 12 January 2018
Snowfall warning in effect for:
- Cornwall – Lancaster
- Maxville – Alexandria
- Morrisburg – Long Sault
- Winchester – Newington
Snowfall, with total amounts of 15 to 20 cm is expected.
Heavy snow tonight into Saturday morning.
Rain will change to snow by early this evening following the passage of a sharp cold front. There is also a chance of brief freezing rain during the change over.
Snow at times heavy, along with local blowing snow, is expected to continue until midday Saturday. Total snowfall amounts of 15 to 20 cm is expected by this time.
Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop.
Snowfall warnings are issued when significant snowfall is expected.
Third “snow day” since the little snowflakes went back to school after two weeks off. I have a solution. For every “snow day” between January and March one day comes off the March break. That would put a stop to these ridiculous “snow days.”
This is ridiculous. I’m telling the after school program that they can send the bill for my 2 kids to the STEO! Jamie, this is ridiculous and has to stop. Something has to be done. It’s not about the safety of the kids it’s about lawsuits because of incompetent bus drivers!
This is a serious issue right now for parents! Maybe writing a piece on what the hell the STEO is doing?
Thanks
