Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceDrake School is a middle school in Drake, Saskatchewan, part of Horizon 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 Drake School are almost always made at the district level. If Horizon Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Horizon Schools forecast).
Saskatchewan averages about 100 cm of snow per year. Saskatchewan schools close primarily for extreme cold below -40°C with wind chill and blizzard conditions. Ground blizzards across the open prairies create dangerous travel conditions even with modest snowfall.
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 Horizon Schools before acting on it.
