Nunavut runs its own schools. This site does not state how a Nunavut school decides to close, because we have not published a checked board page for the territory. The forecast on this hub is for Iqaluit. The city page gives the ERA5 January mean and annual snowfall at that point for 2014–2023.
Iqaluit is not a stand-in for a High Arctic community with a different wind regime. Search the postal code if you need another point. The score remains a weather estimate, not a territorial notice.
