Powered by NOAA / National Weather ServiceJefferson Elementary is a elementary school in Port Angeles, Washington, part of Port Angeles School District. 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 Jefferson Elementary are almost always made at the district level. If Port Angeles School District closes, this school closes with it — so the district-wide forecast is usually the number that matters (see the Port Angeles School District forecast).
Town districts sit between urban and rural conditions: main routes are usually cleared early, but outlying pickups can stay hazardous well past sunrise.
Washington averages about 7 inches of snow per year. Seattle and Puget Sound districts close aggressively — even 1-2 inches causes widespread closures due to steep hills and limited salt reserves.
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 Port Angeles School District before acting on it.
