Just over a week left until Christmas and our current landscape is mostly brown. Is there still hope for a White Christmas? The featured chart looks at two metrics of when White Christmas arrives (blue bars) and the frequency of snow on the ground at a certain date surviving until at least Christmas Day (red bars). For this date, about 75% of the time that there is snow on the ground for this date it survives until Christmas. Also when there is snowcover for Christmas, about 40% of the time that snow was already on the ground for today. So there is time yet and some hope!
