Connecticut averages about 40 inches of snow per year. Connecticut districts coordinate closures regionally and tend to close proactively for nor'easters.
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.
