All school buses are cancelled Wednesday in Middlesex and Elgin Counties, as well as the red zone, ahead of a major winter storm.
The cancellations come as London-Middlesex continues to be under a freezing rain warning as an ice storm is expected to blow through the region late Wednesday and into Thursday with a prolonged period of freezing rain leading to significant ice build-up in some areas.
Winter storm watches are in effect for much of southern Ontario ahead of a major system that’s expected to move in late Wednesday.
