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.
