All public schools in Abbotsford and Mission are closed again today (Jan. 7) following continuing poor winter weather conditions.
Up to a foot of snow fell on the Fraser Valley overnight Wednesday, with freezing temperatures on Thursday – leading to freezing rain in the late afternoon and evening – continuing to make driving hazardous in some areas.
Rain and temperatures of 1 and 2 degrees Celsius are expected for most of Friday and Saturday. No heavy snow is currently in the forecast over the coming days.
Meanwhile, the Central Fraser Valley Transit system, which suspended much of its service on Thursday, is almost back to normal.
