Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceRaleigh-Egypt High is a high school in Memphis, Tennessee, part of Memphis-Shelby County 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 Raleigh-Egypt High are almost always made at the district level. If Memphis-Shelby County Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Memphis-Shelby County Schools forecast).
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.
High schools start earliest, so they feel a storm before the rest of the district does — the first buses often roll while roads are still being treated. That earlier start time is one reason a district watching a morning storm may call the day off entirely rather than run a delay.
Tennessee averages about 5 inches of snow per year. Tennessee schools close at very low thresholds. Nashville closes for 1-2 inches, while mountain districts in eastern TN handle slightly more.
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 Memphis-Shelby County Schools before acting on it.
