Updated Average White Christmas Map in HD!

I blogged last year that NCDC had produced an updated version of the U.S. Average White Christmas Map. This year I am pleased to bring our HD version to you (click to enlarge). Please make sure you are using the new map this season.

RELATED BLOG: Climate Origins of "Dreaming of a White Christmas"RELATED STORY: Probability of a White Christmas in the US

This new NCDC data covers the climatological period from 1980-2012 instead of 1960-1990, so this is a big update. Last year I talked about some of the changes, and showed a comparison of the old and new maps, and changes in individual cities. This year, we're going to start our "2012 White Christmas" forecast maps later this week -- meanwhile we have an article about this graphic and why some areas are more prone to a white Christmas than others.
