Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServicePortsmouth Middle School is a middle school in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, part of Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth Middle School are almost always made at the district level. If Portsmouth Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Portsmouth Schools forecast).
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.
Rhode Island averages about 35 inches of snow per year. Rhode Island's small size means most districts follow a statewide pattern during major storms. Coastal flooding can also trigger closures.
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 Portsmouth Schools before acting on it.
