White Christmas!

We have had some snow but it was not much so I was pretty pleased about that. We have had rain today which I got caught in, that makes me wonder whether I would actually prefer snow, but then no because it is really hard to walk in the snow and as I walk everywhere it takes me ages to get anywhere!

I was in Los Angeles this weekend, highs on Saturday were in the 70's and on Sunday in the high 60's. Got back to Sacramento which was experiencing 40's and froze my little toesies. No snow. You have to go a bit higher up to get snow. And fine with me, I'm a wuss when it comes to cold weather!

Grandpa it was a really nice day today it got to the high 60's today. But sometime late tonight we are to get some rain and light snow maybe an inch. The winds will pick up from 30 to 40mph.and last all day on Tuesday.

Hmmm... Here in Hamilton, Ontario, it was cold and blustery Saturday but we only got a dusting of snow. Same on Sunday. It was supposed to be about -10°C today (windchill making it -13°), but I don't think it got that bad. Again, it tried to snow but hasn't amounted to much, and it's supposed to rise to +3° overnight and get to 9°C tomorrow!

Oh how nice. I have got to find my pictures of our white Christmas that we had 4 years ago, around 6 inches out here where I live. After I find the pictures I have to scan them then figure out how to get them from my desktop to laptop then on MyLot. I don't like when it is too hot here that we have to have the air conditioner on and if the kids get toys to play with outside they have to wear shorts. I would love another white Christmas but that is very doubtful down here but if it would just be cloudy, cold and even rainy would not be bad then I would be happy. Oh the rain can hold off until after my daughter, grandson and son in law make their trip down here on Christmas Day.

Yes we are having a White Christmas, well so the experts say. It has been -5 for three nights and is white over with frost. It is milder today but a White Christmas is now certain and my Children are excited about it. I like to look at the snaw but that is all. I am glad you are having a White Christmas Bob. I know you love the snow. I hope it does not snow too much for you though.

I have never experienced a white Christmas. We never had snow in Malta. So we never experienced a white Christmas here. © ronaldinu 2008

It is nice to know that it is snowing somewhere. I have the air conditioning running, its going to be 75 here today and no chance of snow for me lol I keep hoping and wishing but then there still is time...its been known to drop quickly here and change on a dime....Ill keep hoping for that snow here Grandpa!

The only white around here is the infernal fog that's been hanging around the area for the last several days. Today though I can actually see the houses across the street for a change. The temps have been in the high 30s to low 40s most of the time. Cold enough to keep me bundled up that's for sure. Throw a few snowballs around for me ok? LOL!

Even though I live down south from you we do have a white christmas! LOL! We are to get 3 to 6 tonight...we got a little on Saturday and Sunday had blowing snow and the temps were very cold! It was a good day to stay in and watch the Vikings.

First off that pic looks so pretty and i miss the snow but for fun reasons only..lol..we will probably get a cold front but nothing like what you have there..now if it rains Texans are so behind in how to drive so its hectic here

There have been times it was 70 degrees here on Christmas...lol. I don't believe that will be the case this year as it's already getting colder. We have been in the low 50s a few days already. I doubt we'll have a white Christmas. I wouldn't mind it as long as the roads were still passable.

Hi Grandpa Bob! Well I sure don't live in a warm climate! But, so far no snow yet! The weather here has gotten really cold finally! You know how cold NY weather can get! But, all we have had was a tiny little dusting on the cars so far! Nothing to speak of and nothing that even stayed on the ground! And so far not even any threat of any accumulation. But, I do think that we will be getting some snow before Christmas! It feels like it and looks like it and it seems to be getting alot closer! I will keep you updated of course!

Hi Bob: You can have it LOL! Glad we missed out on that system, but not so sure what we are gonna get tonight, rain mixed snow again, hopefully this time I 'won't fall on black ice again...still really hurt from that last week..OUCH!

I havent heard if they predicted a white christmas here in montreal or not. I know it is snowing now though.

The fresh snow is really nice, I wish to see the real snow too. Well, I'm staying in a tropical country, where there is no winter, no snow. So, we don't have white Christmas here. I was studying in Australia last time, but the winter falls in July, so it's not white christmas too. ^_^

We are getting a thin veil of snow right now. So thin I don't think I'll be able to see it on the ground when I leave to go home. When it snows it is usually around the last of Decemeber or early January. Although I remember a Christmas more than ten years ago when it snowed on my birthday, which was March 1st! Snow in March...

I love a white Christmas, but we haven't had one in Tennessee for awhile, I copied the following fron the web site of the National Weather Service Forecast Office.. Most Snow in 24 Hours 18.2" November 21-22, 1952 Most Snow in One Season 56.7" 1959-60 Snowfall on Christmas: Trace 2002 Trace 1993 0.3" 1992 Trace 1985 1.2" 1976 7.0" 1969 2.0" 1962 1.0" 1935 6.0" 1929 2.0" 1915 We don't have much snowfall here but I did remember a few of the bigger snowfalls around here, I just wasn't sure what years they were.. So 1929 and 1969 were good years for the snow, wonder if this means we have to wait another year for our next 40 year snowfall to happen.. If it happens every 40 years, we are in for a good one next Christmas.. I enjoy the milder Winters anyway.. Wishing for Florida for the next few months..

Hi GRANDPA BOB, That picture looks so beautiful, although some part of the UK mostley up north had lots of snow this past week but I live in the south of England and have not seen a flake yet, but weh hard frost in the night, so we may still get snow some times and hoe it will on Christmas day, wouldn't that be grand?, a white Christmas, we haven't seen one for good number of years.

Well I think it is a flip of the coin here. Saturday afternoon and night brought about an inch of snow and about 1/2 inch of ice. Sunday morning there were a lot of accidents because people just couldn't wait a couple of hours for the roads to be cleared. Sunday afternoon brought higher temp with melting away what had accumulated. Last night the water from the thawing froze again causing black ice. Then it warmed up and melted that away and guess what it is now sleeting! So go figure! LOL No wait a minute it has turned to snow now! LOL
