Does it snow in Munich (Germany) in Christmas?? |
Travel Info How many white Xmas has there been in the last 10 years Travel Tips Of all big German cities Munich has the biggest chance for having White Christmas. I only found that article (from 2003 - see link) in German, but here you have the translation of the first two sentences of the second pragraph: "In comparison to other cities, the probability for having White Christmas are highest in Munich: Here we have snow over the holiday season statistically every three years." We have always snow in winter, but usually the snow cover doesn't become stable before January. December is still a comparatively mild month with low precipitation. In the last twenty years there was a clear tendency towards "Green Christmas", as you call it in German. Winter is getting milder (even despite the fact there was a snow catastrophy last year when a blizzard passed Germany and left Munich with a snow mantle of nearly 60cm after just 12h of snow fall!), this year's autumn was the mildest in history and winter seems to follow. Nevertheless, today they had a little bit of snow, but nothing spectacular. As far as I remember I think I read somewhere that this year's chance is around 60% but that number can change very quickly (sorry I have no source to cite). Write me an email ten days before christmas and I'd be happy to look it up for you in the German media (I don't live there any more at the moment...)! Source(s): I'm from Munich; but I live in Paris now - no White Christmas for me :( http://www.3sat.de/nano/news/60795/index... Other Travel Tips none Oh it does snow soooo much.. It is beautiful , so christmasy, the little kiddies love to play and have fun it is delightful to watch. But if you go there, wrap up warm my dear as you do not want to get a nasty chill do you? I hope this answer has been helpful to you. No white christmases, but lots of snow before and after. no idea how many times in the last 10 years but i used to live in Dusselforf for a few years and boy does it snow in winter! Munchen gets better snow than Dusseldorf Not this year I hope! |
