No.
We get around 48" per year. I love this shit.
No, a green Christmas would be extremely concerning
Shrek disagrees
If it’s not snowing, it’s still not green. It’s just grey. Grey is worse because at least the snow is pretty.
Snow becomes pretty ugly pretty quick, at least in cities.
Grey christmas it is, every year.
I figured it was more about fresh snow. :) fresh snow in the city is at least white, and pretty in a … Chaotic sense.

Depends on the person. It sometimes gets into the negative double digits F where I live. Its forecasted to snow around Christmas and I’m hyped as fuck.
I used to live further North and I miss the snow. We still get some here, but it typically melts off within a week or two.
No. Give me snow. Give me snow year round.
I live in the north of Sweden. I always hope for a white Christmas. If there’s no snow, it’s so dark, and gloomy. A few hours of sunlight in a day. No snow usually means it’s cold enough for rain and a little bit of snow, but also warm enough to melt it to turn it into slush.
So definitely, we always hope for a crisp, snowy Christmas. Every year. More opportunities for outdoor activities then, too.
Never. Christmas time should be cold af, dark for most if not all of the day, and in deep snow.
I spent Christmas one time in Australia. It was surreal. I don’t think I’d ever get used to that, so, not me.
I often wonder if people who live in Australia feel a similar way considering how Christmas time is typically depicted.
Aussie here, to me xmas = summer time. Xmas movies always felt irrelevant, and the idea of Santa wearing all his gear is mental when it’s often 40C+ and humid af.
Being cold would feel alien that time of year, even more so if it snowed because that doesn’t happen in 99% of the country regardless of the time of year.
Lol yup, total opposite! Plus the prevalence of North American/Hollywood movies/shows usually depict snowy Christmas.
No way. Keep your heat, I’ll be snowboarding.
Nope. Who doesn’t love the idea of a winter wonderland Christmas?
It used to snow and I would get tired of it, but now that doesn’t happen much anymore …i don’t mind it if it does.
My red and green this Christmas is fat sweet cherry tomatoes ripening in the sun on my balcony. I would love a little rain to ease the fire danger in the hills, but I had all the snow I need for life during college. It’s funny the snowy people who said they can’t even fathom green, if it weren’t white it would be brown, they’re right about their reality but you asked for a dream. I’m living the dream.
The other nice thing about being in Los Angeles at Christmas is that it’s quiet and there’s very little traffic, because so many people rushed off to visit the snow, either local skiing or far away.
Judging from the answers, it seems like no. And really, most people I know that live up north go somewhere warm in January or February, so get the escape then. I’m 45 and two winters ago I had my first white Christmas. And let me tell you, it was freaking MAGIC. We got like a foot to two feet depending where you were on the property. We were exposed to someone with Covid on Christmas Eve so for the next week we were sequestered away, with food and drinks and a beautiful winter wonderland. None of us ended up with covid but my daughters best friends grandfather is immunocompromised so we’re extra careful. We made a slide off the deck, walked in the woods behind the house, lounged around, did puzzles and read books, and just generally had the most peaceful and relaxed time.
I’ve always lived in warm places, and the Pacific Northwest now, so for me, snow is the most magic thing in the world.
We can like snow in December. Hate it until next december. We will have brown Christmases some years, and there is a sense of disappointment over it.
Last year I had the all you can eat mexican buffet on Christmas eve. I ended up having a “brown Christmas.”
