A reprieve from the deep freeze is on the way.

Environment Canada ended the extreme cold warning for the North Bay area at 11:19 am.

Earlier they said conditions will begin to slowly moderate today.

An Arctic air mass has been affecting the area since late last week.

The extreme cold led school transportation officials to cancel ALL schools buses across the Nipissing, East and West Parry Sound Districts today (Monday, January 21st).

Schools remain open.
