Widespread heavy snowfall continues across northern Ontario with most communities reporting 20–28 cm and gusty winds around 45–55 km/h. Temperatures sit near -1 to -3°C, keeping roads slick and drifting possible as precipitation persists. With snow totals well above 15 cm and school-age travelers in mind, plan for a high probability of snow days or delays; bus runs are especially at risk and getting the kids ready may take longer. Visibility may be reduced at times, and continued snowfall will challenge morning commutes across Ramore, South Porcupine, Timmins, Iroquois Falls A, and nearby areas.
Stop relying on outdated “magic number” calculators.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.
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 In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up.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.
