London, Ontario bus cancellations and school closures

Who makes the call in London
- School board: Thames Valley District School Board (TVDSB)
- School board: London District Catholic School Board (LDCSB)
- School buses: Student Transportation Services (Southwestern Ontario)
How London weather decisions work
- Bus cancellations for the London region are posted on mybigyellowbus.ca, which lists cancellations by zone and route.
- Rural county zones and City of London routes can be treated differently. On February 28, 2023, all buses in Middlesex, Oxford and Elgin counties were cancelled while city routes ran, and both TVDSB and LDCSB kept schools open.
Local weather to watch
Lake Huron snow squalls can vary sharply over short distances around London, which is one reason county routes and city routes do not always get the same decision.
Local guidance reviewed November 2, 2026. Official school-board and transportation notices always take priority over this estimate.
Chance of a snow day in London
The estimate above is driven by the forecast for London, not by generic city text. Snow during the early-morning travel window counts more than snow that ends earlier, and the model also checks freezing precipitation, refreeze risk, severe cold, wind gusts and visibility.
Bus cancellation or school closure? In many Canadian boards the first thing bad weather changes is transportation: buses are cancelled for the day while schools stay open for students who can get there safely. The "weather disruption signal" combines the closure and delay chances as a rough guide to how likely the morning is to be disrupted. It is not a separate, calibrated bus-cancellation model.
How this London estimate works
The baseline model uses live Open-Meteo forecast data. It does not claim to know a board's historical closure behaviour, and ChanceOfSnowDay does not publish an accuracy percentage until verified outcomes have been collected and reviewed.
