Snow day forecast for James S Daley Middle School

James S Daley Middle School is a middle school in Lowell, Massachusetts, part of Lowell 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 James S Daley Middle School are almost always made at the district level. If Lowell Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Lowell Schools forecast).

Suburban area — what that means for closures

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.

Massachusetts averages about 48 inches of snow per year. Massachusetts districts decide independently but often follow regional patterns during major nor'easters. Boston has closed less than 10 times in recent years.

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 Lowell Schools before acting on it.
