Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceRichmond Elementary School is a elementary school in Richmond, Vermont, part of Mount Mansfield Unified Union School District #401. 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 Richmond Elementary School are almost always made at the district level. If Mount Mansfield Unified Union School District #401 closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Mount Mansfield Unified Union School District #401 forecast).
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.
Vermont averages about 80 inches of snow per year. Vermont schools are among the most snow-resilient in the country. Closures typically only happen during major nor'easters or ice storms.
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 Mount Mansfield Unified Union School District #401 before acting on it.
