Snow Day Predictor

No snow days are predicted to occur through November 9, 2018.

 

 

Notice: The snow day predictor is moving off of my WordPress site! I’m making a custom website designed just for the snow day predictor in the coming weeks.

 

What is this? A snow day predictor that I run for my school. It’s much more accurate than every other tool because I use raw data from the GFS & NAM models, NWS, Wunderground, AccuWeather, TWC, human logic, and past experiences with weather and when delays and snow days are issued. The result? A snow day predictor with insanely high accuracy.
