School bus authorities in Ottawa are the only ones who have elected to run school buses Monday after a snowy night.
Ottawa Student Transportation (OSTA) and the Consortium de transport scolaire d’Ottawa (CTSO) are the two agencies with buses. All others in eastern Ontario are keeping their buses parked.
The Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board and the Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board have closed schools Monday.
Other schools are generally open. Check with your school or board for information on what happens when there are no buses, including around high school exams.
The Renfrew County and Upper Canada public boards have moved all exams scheduled for Monday to Tuesday, for example.
Much of eastern Ontario remains under snowfall warnings, which are expected to end by noon. The Belleville area may see 35 centimetres of snow by storm’s end, communities to its east could see up to 25 and the Ottawa area could get up to 15.
There are no cancellation notices or weather alerts for western Quebec, except for Gatineau sharing Ottawa’s warning.
