School cancellations and icy road conditions are plaguing the Maritimes for the second day in a row.
Several school boards across the Maritimes have cancelled classes Wednesday, and treacherous road conditions have forced other cancellations and delays.

Freezing rain warnings across the Maritimes were lifted later on Wednesday morning, though icy spots on roads were still a problem in many areas. In Eastern Passage, just outside Halifax, a school bus slid off the road and into a ditch. One student suffered minor injuries, say RCMP.
The centre of Wednesday's nor'easter will continue to progress slowly, says CBC meteorologist Peter Coade, travelling the length of mainland Nova Scotia during the day and moving into the Gulf of St. Lawrence by early evening. It's expected to cross to Newfoundland and Labrador overnight.
"With the wind becoming strong northerly, in its wake, temperatures will be falling during the day today," says Coade. "A ridge of high pressure will build into the Maritimes overnight tonight with a clearing sky and make for a sunny Thursday.
"Next up, a disturbance moving in from the northwest to bring more snow, developing in northwestern New Brunswick Friday morning and slipping down to bring snow to the rest of the region before daybreak on Saturday."
Coade says there is a chance Nova Scotia could be mild enough on Saturday for the snow to change to rain.
This disturbance will move out before daybreak Sunday, and it will become sunny, but another snowy disturbance is expected for Monday.
