ITHACA, N.Y. (AP) - Climate experts at Cornell University have made their annual predictions about the probability of a white Christmas, while noting that December is shaping up as the 12th month in a row of above-normal temperatures in the Northeast.
Pinkham Notch, N.H., tops the list from the Northeast Regional Climate Center with a 95% probability of an inch or more of snow on the ground on Dec. 25. New York City gets a 12% chance of a white Christmas.
Cornell Climatologist Jessica Rennells says Wednesday the predictions are based on a 50-year average. With above-normal temperatures expected to continue in the Northeast for the next week or two, Rennells says the real odds of a snowy holiday are likely lower than the long-term trend would suggest.
