Snow day forecast for Rio Grande Preparatory Institute

Rio Grande Preparatory Institute is a school in Mesilla, New Mexico, part of Las Cruces 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 Rio Grande Preparatory Institute are almost always made at the district level. If Las Cruces Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Las Cruces 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.

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 Las Cruces Schools before acting on it.
