US · Published Nov 4, 2026
• The Old Farmer's Almanac has released its 2026 holiday snow forecast, predicting a white Christmas for regions like the Northeast, Intermountain West, and Alaska.
• A white Christmas is defined as having at least 1 inch of snow on the ground on Christmas morning.

Impact & Risks

The forecast suggests that snow-prone areas like the Rockies and Northeast may see increased tourism and winter sports activities. However, regions with low snow chances, such as the Southeast and Deep South, may experience warmer-than-usual conditions, potentially affecting holiday traditions. The variability in weather patterns due to El Niño could also lead to unexpected disruptions in travel and holiday plans.
