Snow day forecast for Labrador Straits Academy

Labrador Straits Academy is a high school in L'Anse au Loup, Newfoundland and Labrador, part of Newfoundland and Labrador English 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 Labrador Straits Academy are almost always made at the district level. If Newfoundland and Labrador English School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Newfoundland and Labrador English School District forecast).

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.

Newfoundland and Labrador averages about 335 cm of snow per year. Newfoundland and Labrador sees some of Canada's heaviest snowfall. St. John's frequently closes for blizzards and heavy snow squalls, with the English School District making province-wide announcements.

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 Newfoundland and Labrador English School District before acting on it.
