    The snow doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the -20 degree F temps. These nips could cut glass.

    We used to have white christmases and dream of them too, now with climate change we dream of them but have green / brown ones in reality.

    I live in a northern country with cold winters. The alternative to “white Christmas” is really an icy or wet Christmas. Green would not even cross my mind.

    And certainly I prefer snow over sleet or black ice on the roads.

    If it’s not snowing, it’s still not green. It’s just grey. Grey is worse because at least the snow is pretty.

      Snow becomes pretty ugly pretty quick, at least in cities.

      Grey christmas it is, every year.

    Depends on the person. It sometimes gets into the negative double digits F where I live. Its forecasted to snow around Christmas and I’m hyped as fuck.

      I used to live further North and I miss the snow. We still get some here, but it typically melts off within a week or two.

    Im not in a “cold” climate, but its the pacific northwest. It gets chilly this time of year. People still dream of white Christmases. Its the idealized Christmas.

    My red and green this Christmas is fat sweet cherry tomatoes ripening in the sun on my balcony. I would love a little rain to ease the fire danger in the hills, but I had all the snow I need for life during college. It’s funny the snowy people who said they can’t even fathom green, if it weren’t white it would be brown, they’re right about their reality but you asked for a dream. I’m living the dream.

    The other nice thing about being in Los Angeles at Christmas is that it’s quiet and there’s very little traffic, because so many people rushed off to visit the snow, either local skiing or far away.
