Will We Have a White Christmas in Royal Oak?

There's a pretty good chance we will. But just how good?

The long range forecasts are in for Wednesday and it looks as if Royal Oak has a pretty good shot at having a white Christmas.

The Aol seven day forecast is predicting snow showers and a high of 30 degrees on Christmas Day. 

It's worth noting that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) considers a white Christmas one inch of snow on the ground at 6 a.m on Dec. 25. 

According to NOAA, the historic probability of there being a white Christmas on any given year in southeast Michigan is in the 41 to 50 percent range based on U.S. Climate Normals.

What's your prediction for a white Christmas this year?
