Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceOpdyke-Belle Rive Grade Sch is a school in Opdyke, Illinois, part of Opdyke-Belle-Rive CCSD 5 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 Opdyke-Belle Rive Grade Sch are almost always made at the district level. If Opdyke-Belle-Rive CCSD 5 Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Opdyke-Belle-Rive CCSD 5 Schools forecast).
Rural districts run the longest bus routes over the least-treated roads, so they typically close at lower snowfall totals than nearby urban districts — often on forecasts that would leave a city district open.
Illinois averages about 38 inches of snow per year. Chicago Public Schools rarely close, but suburban and downstate districts close more frequently for lake-effect and prairie blizzard events.
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 Opdyke-Belle-Rive CCSD 5 Schools before acting on it.
