Partial The weather-fetch and display side is easy to vibe-code, but predictions that users trust depend on historical school-closure data by district, which is not publicly available in one place.
What it would actually take: The stack is a weather API (forecast snowfall, temperature, wind) plus a web frontend. The hard part is a model trained on historical closure outcomes mapped to district, forecast, and time, which requires collecting and cleaning that data, often by scraping individual district announcements. Calibration and ongoing data collection are needed for accuracy, so a data pipeline and some statistical expertise are required.
