With Christmas now less than 3 weeks away people are starting to wonder if we'll see a White Christmas in the Quad Cities! The answer is.....yet to be determined. We do have a couple chances for snow coming in the next several days, and we could see some accumulating snow Sunday night/early Monday! An area of low pressure will be taking a track SE of the QC, which is favorable for snow here in Iowa/Illinois. This will be one of those storms which the exact path will determine who sees the snow, who sees the rain and who sees a mix. We'll keep you posted on this as one of main forecast points for the next few days.
In the meantime, here's
a link to some nice data compiled by our local office of the NWS on the chance of seeing a white Christmas in the QC historically.
Out of the last 10 years in the QC 4 have had at least 1 inch of snow on the ground for Christmas, with 2 others having a trace of snow on the ground! That's pretty close to the historic 41.4% chance of us seeing a White Christmas in the Quad Cities!
