Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceRippling Woods Elementary is a elementary school in Glen Burnie, Maryland, part of Anne Arundel County Public 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 Rippling Woods Elementary are almost always made at the district level. If Anne Arundel County Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Anne Arundel County Public Schools forecast).
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.
Maryland averages about 21 inches of snow per year. Maryland districts split between Baltimore-area and DC-area patterns. Western Maryland mountain districts have much higher closure thresholds.
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 Anne Arundel County Public Schools before acting on it.
