Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceJames L Webster Elementary is a middle school in Trail, British Columbia, part of Kootenay-Columbia Schools. The forecast above uses the school's own coordinates, so it reflects conditions at this campus rather than an average across the wider area.
Closure decisions for James L Webster Elementary are almost always made at the district level. If Kootenay-Columbia Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Kootenay-Columbia Schools forecast).
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 Kootenay-Columbia Schools before acting on it.
