Snow day forecast for Walter O. Krumbiegel Middle School

Walter O. Krumbiegel Middle School is a middle school in Hillside, New Jersey, part of Hillside Public 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 Walter O. Krumbiegel Middle School are almost always made at the district level. If Hillside Public School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Hillside Public School District 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.

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.

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 Hillside Public School District before acting on it.
