Arctic climate with extreme cold, limited daylight in winter, and persistent snow cover. Nunavut averages roughly 150 cm of snow per year.
Nunavut schools close for extreme cold and blizzard conditions. With winter temperatures regularly below -30°C, closures are driven by wind chill and visibility rather than snowfall totals.
How school closure decisions work in Nunavut
School boards in Nunavut consider multiple factors when deciding whether to close, delay, or hold classes on a snow day. Beyond raw snowfall totals, administrators evaluate ice accumulation on roads and sidewalks, wind chill temperatures that affect students waiting at bus stops, the timing of the storm relative to morning and afternoon commutes, and whether road crews have had enough time to clear primary bus routes.
Most school boards make their announcements between 6 AM and 7 AM on the day of the event, though some issue closures the evening before when a major storm is certain. Bus cancellations are often announced separately and may occur even when schools technically remain open.
