Why a Snow Day in Chicago?
Achieving a high probability score like 0% is typically indicative of significant infrastructure impact. In Chicago, local school districts take several factors into account before calling a "Snow Day".
Visibility & Safety
With 23 mph gusts, visibility is severely reduced. School buses require operating minimums that may not be met during active snowfall periods in Chicago.
Road Surface Conditions
14° F is the critical zone for ice formation. Even if snowfall is low, the freezing rain potential can lead to black ice, making morning commutes hazardous.
