Snow day forecast for Sheila Skip Nowell

Sheila Skip Nowell is a school in Providence, Rhode Island, part of Sheila Skip Nowell Leadership Academy. 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 Sheila Skip Nowell are almost always made at the district level. If Sheila Skip Nowell Leadership Academy closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Sheila Skip Nowell Leadership Academy forecast).

Urban area — what that means for closures

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.

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.

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 Sheila Skip Nowell Leadership Academy before acting on it.
