Snow day forecast for Wilcox-Hildreth Elementary School

Wilcox-Hildreth Elementary School is a elementary school in Wilcox, Nebraska, part of Wilcox-Hildreth 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 Wilcox-Hildreth Elementary School are almost always made at the district level. If Wilcox-Hildreth Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Wilcox-Hildreth Public Schools forecast).

Rural area — what that means for closures

Rural districts run the longest bus routes over the least-treated roads, so they typically close at lower snowfall totals than nearby urban districts — often on forecasts that would leave a city district open.

Nebraska averages about 27 inches of snow per year. Nebraska districts watch for ground blizzards — high winds across flat terrain create zero-visibility conditions even with modest 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 Wilcox-Hildreth Public Schools before acting on it.
