Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceBuford Middle is a middle school in Charlottesville, Virginia, part of Charlottesville City Public 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 Buford Middle are almost always made at the district level. If Charlottesville City Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Charlottesville City Public 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.
Virginia averages about 15 inches of snow per year. Virginia districts vary widely — NoVA follows DC patterns while mountain districts like those near Charlottesville handle more snow before closing.
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 Charlottesville City Public Schools before acting on it.
