Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceClarke School is a school in Saint Joseph, Michigan, part of St. Joseph 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 Clarke School are almost always made at the district level. If St. Joseph Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the St. Joseph 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.
Michigan averages about 51 inches of snow per year. Lake-effect snow from Lakes Michigan, Huron, and Superior creates highly localized closure events — one district may close while a neighboring one stays open.
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 St. Joseph Public Schools before acting on it.
