Widespread heavy snow continues from Gaspe to Newfoundland with accumulations 30–55 cm and gusty winds. Precipitation remains steady through the period, bringing ongoing travel disruptions. Most areas will see persistent snowfall, while a few pockets along the coast will experience blizzard conditions with winds near 60–62 km/h. For the morning commute, plan for slow travel, road crews working through the day, and potential bus delays. With snow totals well above 15 cm in many spots, there is a HIGH probability of school delays or closures regionwide, especially coastal NB. Keep kids bundled and monitor updates as conditions change.
Stop relying on outdated “magic number” calculators. Snow Day Predictor is the 2026 standard for school closing probabilities, built on the same ultra-high-resolution weather engine that powers the world’s most popular smartphones.
While other sites give you a generic percentage based on total snowfall, we analyze hour-by-hour atmospheric changes to tell you exactly when the roads will become impassable.
Most snow day calculators use global models that only update every 6 to 12 hours. In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up. Our system leverages ultra-precision hourly data to track the “Morning Crunch”—the critical window between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM that determines whether a superintendent calls for a closure or a delay.
