When there are active closings, view them here. The station receives a number of phone calls and e-mails from viewers with questions. One of the most common questions concerns our "Snow Code" system for announcing school and business closings. So, we thought explaining the system here would help you. The snow closing system is a viewer-operated system. KOCO and KOCO.com DO NOT enter the information in the system. That comes straight from the school/business/institution. Before you can enter information, you need a closings ID code and password. HOW TO OBTAIN A CLOSINGS ID CODE If your organization wants an announcement in the snow closing system, please visit http://www.oklahomaclosings.com/entry/. This will allow you to email the school closings administrator to receive an ID code and password. PLEASE NOTE: If you already have a code that has a six-digit user code and six-digit pass code it will not change unless we contact you. NOTES 1. It may take a few days to process a closings ID code request -- so make sure to get your request in before the next storm. If you already have an ID code, you don't need another one. We recommend that you test it before the next closing season begins.  2. Due to the extraordinary number of requests and the ability to effectively display closings on air in a timely fashion, childcare centers, mother's day out, after school gym/cheer/martial arts, etc., will not be included in this system. 3. What time your school or institution chooses to close or delay is totally up to them. KOCO 5 News and KOCO.com only display the information it has received. 4. The system is constantly updating closings on KOCO and KOCO.com. To see the latest closings online, go here. You may have to refresh the page every few minutes for the latest closings. 5. Would you like to have closing alerts e-mailed to you? It's easy -- just head to this page and follow the instructions. We can also send alerts to your cell phone -- but your phone MUST have the ability to receive e-mail or text messages. 6. The snow closing system's information is purged periodically on weather days. After that any information is new and pertains to that day, night, etc, or the next 24-36 hours. Thanks for helping KOCO keep our community informed. Stay tuned to KOCO 5 News and KOCO.com for your winter weather forecast!
