Definitely A "White Christmas"

The 5.5" of snow that officially fell in the Quad Cities Sunday pushes us up to 12.1" for the month of December (the winter total is at 13.1").

That 12.1" for December is just outside the Top 15 snowiest Decembers on record in the Quad Cities, but we have more snow on the way.  To reach the Top 15, we need 13.6".

Light snow will be developing with a clipper system Tuesday night and early on Christmas Day.  Accumulations of 1-2" are likely.  The 2" totals will be north of the Quad Cities.

With the snow yesterday and the snow coming up Christmas Eve, these carolers outside my house are definitely singing about a "White Christmas".
