Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceMiddle Paxton El Sch is a middle school in Dauphin, Pennsylvania, part of Central Dauphin SD 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 Middle Paxton El Sch are almost always made at the district level. If Central Dauphin SD Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Central Dauphin SD Schools forecast).
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.
Pennsylvania averages about 35 inches of snow per year. Erie and northeastern PA see heavy lake-effect snow, while Philadelphia-area districts close more preemptively. Pittsburgh splits the difference.
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 Central Dauphin SD Schools before acting on it.
