Average Christmas weather for Texas. 55 degrees Fahrenheit for the high, 33 for the low, sunny. The sun is a nice surprise. It's usually either a miserable 43 and rainy or a balmy 65-70 when we'd all rather be wearing short sleeves than sweltering in our Christmas clothes.

On the three occasions in my life when I have seen snow, it occurred in late January/February. That's when it gets actually cold in Texas.

Thank you for the winter dragon pictures. They are wonderful.

@Starphire

Yeah, it's pretty nice here. Last year was an awful snow year :(

Wishing you snow and happy holidays!

@gn0me, hi there! Since this is indeed more of a general topic and not really FR-related, I've booped it on over to the General Discussion forum. :) Thanks!

It's a very chilly Christmas Eve Day where I live with a high of 24F and some snow flurries...but certainly nothing that will stick. No white Christmas this year. :C

Where I live gets snow and stays cold for a very long time...but rarely are we lucky enough to get it for Christmas.

Here in Missouri, it's a high of around 24F and a low of 13F with a lot of wind rn. No snow though, thankfully. It wasn't so bad that I couldn't take my walk today so I'm happy.

I'm in an area under a big rainstorm, like 2" expected tonight, Xmas Eve, but unseasonably warm temperatures, around 60F! On Xmas Day it'll be dry, but dropping to cold below freezing with several more degrees of wind chill.

Good times to stay inside cozy with the fireplace going! (Once Santa's made his visit!)

Actually seasonal! 55 degrees Fahrenheit; nice and cool. High is 57 and the low is 37. I'm real deep in Texas, so it's not crazy to have an 80-degree Christmas. Tomorrow will be a little warmer, though, at 69 degrees.

Midwesterner here. No snow for Christmas this year again, but it's pretty cold at a nice 9 degrees Fahrenheit Lol
Yesterday the wind was very strong (max 45 mph) and there was snow flurries last night but it melted by morning ://

The plus side is that it'll be very sunny for the next week :D

@gn0me

It may be pretty similar though if you're in Australia? I think Australia is usually hotter, especially since you're in summer right now.

It's been pretty dry this winter, exacerbated by more dry Santa Ana winds than usual. There was actually a warning for them starting yesterday and running through Christmas because the power company turns off power in certain areas when they happen because the dryness, plus high winds have been known to down power lines and cause wildfires.

Right now it's 65F, usually it drops down to the 40-50s at night.

It does look like it's supposed to rain today so here's to hoping there's rain tonight.
