Snow day forecast for Bess Streeter Aldrich Elementary

Bess Streeter Aldrich Elementary is a elementary school in Cedar Falls, Iowa, part of Cedar Falls Comm School District. 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 Bess Streeter Aldrich Elementary are almost always made at the district level. If Cedar Falls Comm School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Cedar Falls Comm School District forecast).

Urban area — what that means for closures

Urban districts usually have the best-treated roads and the shortest bus routes, so they tend to hold out longer before closing — but they also weigh sidewalk conditions and transit reliability for students who walk or ride public transport.

Iowa averages about 35 inches of snow per year. Iowa schools watch wind chill closely — many districts close when wind chill drops below -25°F regardless of snowfall.

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 Cedar Falls Comm School District before acting on it.
