Several thousand customers are still without power Wednesday morning after a winter storm brought messy weather across northeastern Nova Scotia. The school board also announced school buses would travel on paved roads only. As well, there was a two-hour delayed opening announced at all schools within the Strait Regional Centre for Education due to road conditions. And classes were cancelled at the Bayview Education Centre, the Felix Marchand Education Centre, Richmond Academy and East Antigonish Academy. The Chignecto-Central Regional Centre for Education also tweeted all Cumberland County schools and Tatamagouche Regional Academy was closed due to road conditions and blowing snow.
