Spring-Ford Area School District Snow Day Predictor

By phone call, email, text message, the district app, the district website and local TV, and on the district’s own closings page.

June 3, 2027, on the district’s 2026 to 2027 calendar.

About 15.6 inches a winter at a NOAA weather station 10.6 miles away, averaged over 9 winters. Between December 1 and March 31 that brings 2.6 weekday mornings a year with 2 inches of new snow or more, and 1.1 with 4 inches or more.

12 inches on February 2, 2021, the largest single day at a NOAA weather station 10.6 miles away in 9 winters. The snowiest winter was 2020 to 2021, with 45.3 inches.

It reads the National Weather Service forecast for Royersford through the night and the 5 to 8 am bus run, adds winter alerts and the Winter Storm Severity Index, and measures the snow against Spring-Ford’s own big snow morning: 5.4 inches, the top tenth of snowy weekday mornings at a NOAA weather station 10.6 miles away.

Pennsylvania requires either 180 days, or hours: 900 for kindergarten through grade 6 and 990 for grades 7 to 12, as the district chooses. The state forgives no days; districts are expected to build make-up days into the calendar for closures beyond any Flexible Instructional Days.
