Will I Have a Snow Day Tomorrow?

Snow Day Predictor shows your odds of school being canceled based on snowfall, temperature, and forecast trends.

Widespread Snow, Blizzard Risk Seizes Morning Commute

Last updated 2/18/2026, 8:00 PM
  • Northern Plains to Great Lakes
  • Duluth MN region
  • Barrie-Ontario corridor
  • Thunder Bay/Sudbury (regional nuance)
A broad band of heavy snow and gusty winds grips the northern tier, with many locations already reporting 16–32 cm and winds 60–90 km/h. Blizzard-like conditions are likely where snow totals exceed 20 cm, bringing very difficult travel and a high chance of school delays or closures in hardest-hit zones. In the Great Lakes/Ontario corridor, expect slick roads, reduced visibility, and bus disruptions, so plan for kids getting ready earlier and potential bus cancellations in northern pockets. Stay indoors if you can and monitor official school announcements.

About Snow Day Predictor

Stop relying on outdated “magic number” calculators. Snow Day Predictor is the 2026 standard for school closing probabilities, built on the same ultra-high-resolution weather engine that powers the world’s most popular smartphones.

While other sites give you a generic percentage based on total snowfall, we analyze hour-by-hour atmospheric changes to tell you exactly when the roads will become impassable.

The Precision Difference: Why We Outrank the Rest

Most snow day calculators use global models that only update every 6 to 12 hours. In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up. Our system leverages ultra-precision hourly data to track the “Morning Crunch”—the critical window between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM that determines whether a superintendent calls for a closure or a delay.
