The seemingly endless potential for snow squalls is set to persist through Monday evening and into Tuesday morning. This round will primarily affect the eastern and southern shorelines of Lake Huron, where an additional 10 to 25 cm of snow is expected overnight. These conditions will likely lead to more school bus cancellations in areas already impacted on Monday.

.Meanwhile, the cleanup continues in the Muskoka region following the intense snow squalls that dumped over 100 cm of snow on Bracebridge and Gravenhurst over the weekend. The Trillium Lakelands District School Board has announced that ONLY schools in Gravenhurst will remain closed on Tuesday, while buses serving the Bracebridge area will not be running.

Schools and transportation services in Huntsville will operate as usual. We’ve marked this region as "Already Cancelled" on our map, as the school board rarely issues sub-regional cancellations. For precise details, check the official announcement linked here.

For weather-related cancellations elsewhere, the strongest likelihood of a "snow day" is in AMDSB (Exeter), with a 90% probability due to expected intense snowfall accumulation overnight.

Surrounding areas, including BWDSB (Southampton and Kincardine), AMDSB (Goderich and Stratford), TVDSB (Middlesex and London), and LKDSB (Lambton), have a 50/50 to strong chance of school bus cancellations, as these regions could see notable snowfall and challenging travel conditions.

There’s also a 50/50 chance of cancellations in BWDSB (Meaford) and the "West" weather zone of Simcoe County due to potential snow squall activity off Georgian Bay. However, there is less confidence in whether the snowfall will be intense enough to disrupt transportation.

For the rest of Southern Ontario, school bus cancellations on Tuesday are unlikely. That said, attention is already shifting to Wednesday, as a developing weather system could bring widespread snowfall accumulation, with the potential to significantly impact some areas.

This may lead to school bus cancellations midweek. Stay tuned for our ‘snow day’ forecast on Tuesday afternoon!
