OTTAWA -- Health officials are reporting 37 new cases of COVID-19 in Ottawa. The jump in cases comes on a day when 131 new cases were reported provincewide.

This is the highest number of new cases reported in a single day since July 21, when 43 cases were reported. The figures come from Ontario's daily epidemiologic summary.

Health Minister Christine Elliott said the increased number of cases across Ontario is the result of 11 public health units that hadn't reported data on Thursday updating their figures on Friday.

Ottawa was not one of those health units. With the 11 missing public health units now having entered their numbers for yesterday and with all 34 units reporting today, Ontario has added 131 cases of #COVID19.

Remote schooling means snow days could become optional in NJ

MONTCLAIR, N.J. - Many New Jersey children may soon have to experience snow days from the inside looking out if some state lawmakers on both sides of the aisle get their way.Legislation before the state would give school districts the option of using snow days during inclement weather. But if the districts choose not to take a snow day, then the day away from the physical school building would be a remote learning day and it would count toward the state's 180-day education requirement.There's no denying that the unfettered joy of waking up to word of a snow day is a rite of passage for many kids.
