Snow day forecast for Riverview PK-8

Riverview PK-8 is a school in Johnstown, Colorado, part of Thompson School District R-2J. 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 Riverview PK-8 are almost always made at the district level. If Thompson School District R-2J closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Thompson School District R-2J forecast).

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 Thompson School District R-2J before acting on it.
