School-closure thresholds track the regional snowfall climatology: districts in high-snowfall areas close only for major events, while low-snowfall districts close for smaller events that would be unremarkable elsewhere. New Mexico's district-level autonomy means nearby towns sometimes make different closure calls for the same storm.
