Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceChaplain Charles Watters School is a school in Jersey City, New Jersey, part of Jersey City 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 Chaplain Charles Watters School are almost always made at the district level. If Jersey City Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Jersey City Public Schools forecast).
Urban districts usually have the best-treated roads and the shortest bus routes, so they tend to hold out longer before closing — but they also weigh sidewalk conditions and transit reliability for students who walk or ride public transport.
New Jersey averages about 25 inches of snow per year. New Jersey districts are notorious for preemptive closures. Northern NJ closes more frequently than southern counties.
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 Jersey City Public Schools before acting on it.
