British Columbia averages about 55 cm of snow per year. Coastal BC districts (Vancouver, Victoria) close at very low snow thresholds — even 5-10 cm can shut down schools. Interior and northern BC districts handle much more snow before closing.
We score the live forecast at this location against the factors that drive closure calls: snowfall total and intensity, when the heaviest accumulation lands relative to the morning commute, ice and freezing rain, wind chill, and how confident the forecast models are. You get a probability for a full closure, a two-hour delay, and an early dismissal.
This is an independent forecast, not an official announcement. Confirm any closure with Chief & Council Of Gwa'Sala-'Nakwaxda'Xw Schools before acting on it.
