MSAD 60: how our school closure outlook has done
Estimates from the weather forecast. They are not official school announcements.
MSAD 60 makes and announces its own decisions. Weather Signal is an independent app and is not run by any school or district.
The record so far
30 school days recorded since Sep 30: 30 open, 0 closed, 0 delayed.
- 13 quiet days: school ran as usual and our outlook said a closure or delay was unlikely.
- 17 school days ran as usual with no outlook recorded.
Storm days
A day is listed here when any outlook of ours before the decision said a closure or delay was possible or more, or when the district closed, delayed or dismissed early. Verdicts describe our outlook, never the district's decision.
No storm days yet.
How this works
- Our outlook here is the estimate for the district as a whole, saved at set times each day, in the words the Weather Signal app uses: unlikely, possible, likely, very likely. The app works out its estimate for each school from the latest forecast, so what it showed at another moment may have differed.
- “Evening before” is our last outlook from the afternoon before the school day, by 5:00 PM. “Before the decision” is our last outlook after that and before the district announced, or before 5:00 AM if it had not announced by then.
- If another outlook from the afternoon or night before was stronger than both of those, the day shows it as well, in one more line.
- An outlook issued after the district announced is never shown.
- What the district did comes from the district's own announcements. An ordinary school day is recorded when the district posted no closing, delay or early release. Holidays and other days off on its calendar are left out.
- “How our outlook did” compares our last outlook before the decision with what the district did.
- Our outlook has been recorded since Oct 26. Where it says “No outlook recorded”, the forecast was not available at that time or our records had not started.
- Our method was updated on Oct 28 and Nov 7. Each outlook is shown as it was issued.
- We show words and counts, not an accuracy score. A few storm days are too few to score fairly.
- Times are local to the district.
