Early morning snapshot shows generally light to moderate snow across Ontario with most regions recording less than 10 cm. Northern pockets like Mattice, Kapuskasing, and Hearst may see additional slick spots on untreated roads, with winds to around 60 km/h in some areas, but no region reaches the threshold for widespread closures. Schools are unlikely to be canceled; some delays possible in far northern routes if buses encounter slick roads. Expect a brisk, cold start with clear marks for the kids: bundle up, allow extra time for a careful morning commute, and monitor local alerts for any sudden shifts.
Stop relying on outdated âmagic numberâ calculators. Snow Day Predictor is the 2026 standard for school closing probabilities, built on the same ultra-high-resolution weather engine that powers the worldâs 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 In a fast-moving winter storm, that data is obsolete before you even wake up.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 âMorning Crunchââthe critical window between 4:00 AM and 7:00 AM that determines whether a superintendent calls for a closure or a delay.
