Snow day forecast for OEN - Cedar Rapids Prep

OEN - Cedar Rapids Prep is a school in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, part of Opportunity Ed_Cedar Rapids 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 OEN - Cedar Rapids Prep are almost always made at the district level. If Opportunity Ed_Cedar Rapids Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Opportunity Ed_Cedar Rapids Schools 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 Opportunity Ed_Cedar Rapids Schools before acting on it.
