Snow day forecast for Thomas S O'Brien Academy Of Science & Technology

Thomas S O'Brien Academy Of Science & Technology is a school in Albany, New York, part of Albany City 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 Thomas S O'Brien Academy Of Science & Technology are almost always made at the district level. If Albany City School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Albany City School District 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.

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 Albany City School District before acting on it.
