Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceSt Thomas More Collegiate is a high school in Burnaby, British Columbia, part of St Thomas More Collegiate Ltd 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 St Thomas More Collegiate are almost always made at the district level. If St Thomas More Collegiate Ltd Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the St Thomas More Collegiate Ltd Schools forecast).
High schools start earliest, so they feel a storm before the rest of the district does — the first buses often roll while roads are still being treated. That earlier start time is one reason a district watching a morning storm may call the day off entirely rather than run a delay.
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 St Thomas More Collegiate Ltd Schools before acting on it.
