The amount of snow that would cause schools to close varies in different areas. A northern area that is prepared to clear snow off the roads might not close schools at all unless several feet of snow fell, and maybe not even then. In areas that are not as well prepared, a few inches of snow might result in schools closing if road conditions were bad or expected to become slick and hazardous.

While a few inches could cause schools to close in one area, another area might not close unless they got several feet.


How hot does it have to be to close school?

Can schools close with only inches of rain fall?

Usually schools do not close when it has only rained a couple inches. However, sustained rainfall of more than a couple inches could produce flooding in some areas of the School District. Or potential flooding could affect support services, such as bus drivers and cafeteria workers. School Boards will err on the side of caution if flooding is predicted.

It is possible, but not likely. New York is a northern state that is well prepared for much more snow than 1 to 2 inches. It would probably take much more snow than that for schools to need to close.

How much snow would it take for a city to close their schools?

In the UK, it is chiefly up to your headteacher to decide, they look at how many staff can get in , conditions of roads and student safety. I'd say a good 4 inches of snow would be enough to temporarily close a school. In the US, the amount of snow it would take to close city schools would depend on where the city is located and how well they are prepared to deal with wintery weather conditions. Some cities do not close school for snow at all.
