"Roads are covered with ice, which will last until noon Thursday," said Yuan.
All long-distance bus terminals in Liaoning have suspended their services.
A total of 15 flights were delayed or diverted from early Thursday morning until 9 am at Shenyang Xiantao International Airport due to slippery runways.
