Snow day forecast for Colorado School of Mines

Colorado School of Mines is a college or university in Golden, Colorado. The forecast above uses the school's own coordinates, so it reflects conditions at this campus rather than an average across the wider area.

Suburban area — what that means for closures

Suburban districts depend heavily on bus fleets covering a wide area of residential streets, which are plowed after main roads. Side-street conditions at 5 AM often decide the call.

Colorado averages about 57 inches of snow per year. Front Range districts close most often during spring upslope storms that can dump 1-2 feet overnight.

How this prediction is calculated

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 Colorado School of Mines before acting on it.
