Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceHancock Elementary School is a elementary school in Hancock, New Hampshire, part of Contoocook Valley School District. 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 Hancock Elementary School are almost always made at the district level. If Contoocook Valley School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Contoocook Valley School District forecast).
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.
New Hampshire averages about 60 inches of snow per year. New Hampshire districts are well-prepared for snow but close for major nor'easters and ice storms that affect mountain passes.
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 Contoocook Valley School District before acting on it.
