Snow day forecast for Union Middle

Union Middle is a middle school in Big Stone Gap, Virginia, part of Wise County 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 Union Middle are almost always made at the district level. If Wise County Public Schools closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Wise County Public Schools forecast).

Town area — what that means for closures

Town districts sit between urban and rural conditions: main routes are usually cleared early, but outlying pickups can stay hazardous well past sunrise.

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.

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 Wise County Public Schools before acting on it.
