Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceRichard Allen Preparatory is a school in Dayton, Ohio, part of Richard Allen Preparatory 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 Richard Allen Preparatory are almost always made at the district level. If Richard Allen Preparatory Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Richard Allen Preparatory Schools forecast).
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.
Ohio averages about 28 inches of snow per year. Ohio uses a Level 1-3 snow emergency system. Most schools close at Level 2 and virtually all close at Level 3 county emergencies.
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 Richard Allen Preparatory Schools before acting on it.
