SnowDay Predictor is a Canada-wide forecasting tool that turns real-time weather data into a clear, easy-to-read snow day prediction score — so you know how likely school closures, delays, and travel disruptions are before they happen.

We currently cover 310+ cities and towns across all 10 provinces and 3 territories, with coverage expanding every season.

Our data refreshes hourly, pulling from Environment Canada feeds, regional weather stations, and road condition reports.

Yes. Checking your local forecast and prediction score is completely free, with no account required.

Your score is built from three weighted factors: expected snowfall (up to 40 points), snow probability (up to 30 points), and minimum temperature (up to 20 points), plus a bonus for severe winter conditions like freezing rain or blizzards.

Our model runs at roughly 94% accuracy across the season, and we review every storm afterward to keep improving it.

We combine Environment Canada forecasts, regional weather stations, and road condition reports rather than relying on a single generic weather API.

Not necessarily. Your score reflects weather risk, but the final closure decision is always made by your local school board, which also factors in road conditions and staffing. Always confirm with your board's official channel.

Light snow alone doesn't always meet the threshold for a closure. The status reflects the combined score from snowfall, temperature, and precipitation — not the presence of snow alone.
