Morning update: cold start with mainly light snow across Ontario. Sturgeon Falls is seeing about 7 cm with ~45 km/h winds, enough for blowing snow on exposed roads. No freezing rain reported and most areas stay under a 10 cm total, so no widespread closures, but isolated delays are possible in northern Ontario as roads stay slick and temps hover near freezing. Teachers and parents should plan for a careful morning commute and group up kids with extra winter gear for outdoor time.
Stop relying on outdated âmagic numberâ calculators. Snow Day Predictor is the 2026 standard for school closing probabilities, built on the same ultra-high-resolution weather engine that powers the worldâs 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.
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 In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up.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 âMorning Crunchââthe critical window between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM that determines whether a superintendent calls for a closure or a delay.
