CBC
Public schools on P.E.I. have cancelled classes for Friday as snow begins to pile up around the province.
The forecast falls short of the requirements for a snowfall warning, with 10 to 15 centimetres of snow and ice pellets expected. Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement.
But the heaviest snow is expected to fall about the time the school buses would be running.
Light snow began to fall around 3 a.m. it is expected to turn a little heavier around 7 a.m., and then switch over to ice pellets with a risk of freezing rain around 10 a.m. that could continue into the mid-afternoon before the precipitation switches over to rain.
