I saw this weather map on weather.com Colorado Springs is right on the map where the purple and white areas meet in Colorado. To all our family coming, you might get a white Christmas! See definition below for a "white Christmas" from weather.com
"Above is the latest official White Christmas forecast for 2012 from The Weather Channel's Global Forecast Center. We will continue to fine tune and update this forecast leading up to December 25, so bookmark this link and check back frequently.
This is not a map of "historical probability" or "climatology", but our best forecast at which areas may have a White Christmas this year.
In the world of meteorological statistics, a "White Christmas" is defined as having at least 1 inch of snow on the ground on Christmas morning. No snow has to fall on Christmas Day for this, of course.
Therefore, our forecast takes into account future snowfall and the potential for warm or cold spells to either melt or maintain snow cover through Christmas morning."
