Narrative:

En route from ord to sjc, the FMC indicated we would be touching down at sjc at XA56. (We were declared out of ord due to WX.) the airport closes at XB00. During the arrival we were told to descend very early, which caused us to land at approximately XB02. I'm not sure if our dispatch or local operations had gotten permission to land with the field closed or not from the airport authority/authorized. I felt the safest thing to do was land.
