i guess i have been spoiled the last few years. i expect a white christmas. when was the last time anyone experienced no snow covering the ground on christmas day here in NH? what part of the state were you in?
There was none in Loudon last year. We spent Christmas week in Colebrook, so we could snowshoe. The year before, we just had little piles of melted snow here and there, but the lake was frozen solid, so we ice skated and had a Christmas campfire. I think we might be out of luck on the snow this year. Probably have to go to a ski area or Northern Canada to find any.
I don't think that there was any snow on the ground last Christmas Day in southern NH. We had a couple of inches about a week before, really not sure if it stayed on the ground till the 25th... I clearly remember that snow started on the 26th, continued into the 27th, and we had white ground cover through March, then an April Fool storm on April 1 with about 5". I'm in southern NH, Londonderry.
When in doubt, go to the White Mountains. They almost always have snow.
Most of NH has had snow cover for the past four Christmases. 2006 was the last year where the state was mostly uncovered. We got snow the following day in Bristol.
Well, it depends on what your definition of a "white Christmas" is. I consider it whenever there's snow on the ground (as does the Weather Channel), but some people only call it a white Christmas if it actually snows that day.
Pinkham Notch has a 95% possibility of having one inch of snow on the ground on Christmas according to Cornell University's Northeast Regional Climate Center.
According to WMUR weather, we in southern NH *could* have some of the white stuff falling through the wee hours, and wake up to a light coating of snow on Christmas morning.
Wouldn't that be special
