Snow day forecast for SWMetro288 Elevate Online K-6

Closure decisions for SWMetro288 Elevate Online K-6 are almost always made at the district level. If Southwest Metro Intermediate 288 Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Southwest Metro Intermediate 288 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.

Minnesota averages about 54 inches of snow per year. Minnesota schools are built for winter but close for blizzard warnings and extreme wind chill events below -35°F.

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 Southwest Metro Intermediate 288 Schools before acting on it.
