Peterborough was spared from Mother Nature’s wrath that struck southern Ontario overnight Tuesday.
Dan Duran, Global Peterborough’s weather analyst, said Peterborough and area received only five centimetres of snow overnight — far off the 15-20 cm of snow that had been anticipated for the region.
School buses were operating on schedule in the city, Peterborough County and Northumberland County.
However, Student Transportation Services of Central Ontario cancelled bus services for the Clarington area.
On Tuesday morning, there were reports of a three-vehicle collision on Highway 115 south of Peterborough in the northbound lanes.
Temperatures are expected to drop again later Tuesday to -20 C which will continue for the remainder of the week, Duran said.
He also said lake-enhanced flurries are also anticipated with a centimetre each day leading into the weekend.
More to come.
