Merry Christmas to all of our International Friends here!

How many of you have a White Christmas? In New England (USA) Chrismas always seems more like Christmas when we have snow.

This year we in Stockholm, Sweden have a White Christmas and -15°C. The chance of a White Christmas is probably 2/3. If we do get a white Christmas everybody's happy. If we don't, people blame global warming...

With only six hours of daylight per day, I think Trumpy's idea of a competition in Christmas light displays is great. [Linked Image]

A White Christmas is the exception rather than the rule here.

Today has been cloudy and overcast, but unseasonably warm with the temperature reaching the low/mid 50s.

In hindsight, Christmas Day, could be summed up by one word "WIND", not mine however,
It blew a gale of a hot,dry Nor'westerly Fohn
wind, it was 28 degrees, in the shade.

We had about 6 inches Christmas Night.
I think some of my Northern neighbors like Sparky probably got dumped on quite a bit more.

Snow is not anywhere near as common (or intense) now as it was in the 50s and 60s.

As it's summer down there, I hope that's 28 deg. C! I make that around 82 F. Wouldn't say no to temperatures like that at the moment! [Linked Image]

Same here Bill. Despite the weather being as changeable and unpredictable as ever, most people who have been around longer than I have say that winters have become milder.

34Degrees F here in the morning, hard rain, over an inch, before changing to snow, about 10 in the morning, then 8 inches of snow, by about 10 in the evening.
Power went out about 3 in the afternoon, off for about 12 hours, till they got around to us to cut the tree the rest of the way off, and glue the primary back together.
I'm in eastern PA.
