Snow day forecast for South Richmond High School Is/Ps 25

South Richmond High School Is/Ps 25 is a high school in Staten Island, New York, part of Nyc Special Schools - District 75. 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 South Richmond High School Is/Ps 25 are almost always made at the district level. If Nyc Special Schools - District 75 closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Nyc Special Schools - District 75 forecast).

Urban area — what that means for closures

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.

High schools start earliest, so they feel a storm before the rest of the district does — the first buses often roll while roads are still being treated. That earlier start time is one reason a district watching a morning storm may call the day off entirely rather than run a delay.

New York averages about 50 inches of snow per year. Upstate NY (Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester) rarely closes thanks to robust plowing, while NYC schools almost never close. Suburban districts are more closure-prone.

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 Nyc Special Schools - District 75 before acting on it.
