Snow day forecast for Neal Middle

Neal Middle is a middle school in Durham, North Carolina, part of Durham Public 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 Neal Middle are almost always made at the district level. If Durham Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Durham Public 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.

North Carolina averages about 5 inches of snow per year. North Carolina schools close at very low snow thresholds — even 1-2 inches can shut down most districts due to limited winter equipment.

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 Durham Public Schools before acting on it.
