Snow Day Calculator
This week Michigan has been hit by extremely cold weather and significant snow accumulation. Students and teachers everywhere are wondering, “what are our chances of a snow day?” This is where the snow day calculator comes in! Just type in your school’s zip code, the number of snow days you’ve had, and the type of school. The snow day calculator uses a “custom formula” to give you the percent chance you have of a snow day. The snow day calculator also offers apps for Android and iPhones, as well as text notifications. The service remains free because of ads, which I think is well worth it. The snow day calculator claims it is “the only automatic snow day predictor available.” This website gives conservative predictions about the chance of a snow day based on the weather. The only improvement this site could use would be the addition of a cold day calculator. As of now, we have been called off or the next two days because of the windchill, but the snow day calculator gives only a 4% chance of a snow day. Either way this website is a great resource for when students and teachers alike are wondering if school will be called off. Happy snow day!!
