Snow day forecast for Harrisburg East Middle School - 11

Harrisburg East Middle School - 11 is a middle school in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, part of Harrisburg School District 41-2. 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 Harrisburg East Middle School - 11 are almost always made at the district level. If Harrisburg School District 41-2 closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Harrisburg School District 41-2 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.

South Dakota averages about 40 inches of snow per year. South Dakota schools close for blizzard warnings and ground blizzard conditions. Western SD (Black Hills) gets more snow but closes less often.

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 Harrisburg School District 41-2 before acting on it.
