Snow day forecast for Sharon Elementary School

Sharon Elementary School is a elementary school in Wadsworth, Ohio, part of Highland Local 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 Sharon Elementary School are almost always made at the district level. If Highland Local Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Highland Local Schools forecast).

Rural area — what that means for closures

Rural districts run the longest bus routes over the least-treated roads, so they typically close at lower snowfall totals than nearby urban districts — often on forecasts that would leave a city district open.

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.

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 Highland Local Schools before acting on it.
