Wintry weather is causing a little bit of chaos on the roads this morning outside of London.
Meanwhile, unplowed and icy roads have forced the cancellations of school buses in Elgin, Middlesex and Oxford counties, school boards announced Tuesday morning.
Schools in those counties remain open and school buses within London are not affected.
