Warnings Issued as Winter Storm Bears Down on CK

With a winter storm warning in effect, some area residents are bracing for the worst.

The Lambton Kent District School Board advised students today to take home any personal belongings they might need over the winter break in the event buses are cancelled or schools end up being closed tomorrow.

The St Clair Catholic District School Board, meantime, is reminding families that if schools are closed because of the weather, staff will work remotely from home and will provide asynchronous learning through the Learning Management System.  New curriculum will not be taught; however, teachers will be available to provide feedback to any student who has submitted work throughout the day during school hours.

Environment Canada is calling for as much as 15cm of snow by Friday night, a flash freeze, wind gusts up to 100 km/hr, and wind chill values into the minus 20s Friday and into Saturday.

Provincial Police are urging drivers to be safe if they have to venture out tomorrow. Some basic winter driving safety tips:
