Snow persists across the region with Whittier seeing about 18 cm, accompanied by gusty winds around 50 km/h, creating slick roads and potential school disruptions. Other spots like Valdez and Resolute will see 12–13 cm and breezier to moderate winds, bringing slick travel but lower closures risk. Sturgeon Falls and nearby Ontario pockets stay light (under 8 cm) with lingering haze that could slow morning commutes. Invest in extra time for getting the kids ready and plan for possible bus delays where heavier snowfall is reported.
Stop relying on outdated “magic number” calculators.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 In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up.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.
