Do you Need snow for Christmas?

[Poohs Pal]

I plan on moving to florida next year . Seeing that i'm from Michigan, Christmas and snow go together. I have been asked by family members how in the world I can be in Florida during christmas and not have snow for christmas.. My response "At my AGE I don't NEED snow at christmas to get that warm and fuzzy feeling ." If I want snow i'll go to MVMCP! So what about you? Do you need snow for the warm and fuzzy christmas feeling. Susan

Not just NO! but H*E***** NO!!!

Christmas is STILL Christmas without the white stuff.

 

[Poohs Pal]

Yeah for the no's. susan

 

[noodleknitter]

Not! Just makes the roads slippery and dangerous.

 

[Bichon Barb]

Yes. As much as possible.

 

[TheGoofster]

Need - no
Want - yes

I've never had a white Christmas and I grew up in NY and have lived in VA for the last nine years. I HATE sunny Christmases. I really hope I get a white Christmas one year... So yes, I do need snow, or at the very least, cold, miserable weather, to make it Christmas.

 

[minnieandme]

nope, not for me. The thing I learned to love is being able to go outside on Christmas day and not have to wear a coat or jacket.

 

[apirateslifeforme]

No. I HATE snow.

Yes, I know I live in CT. I still hate snow.

nope, not for me. The thing I learned to love is being able to go outside on Christmas day and not have to wear a coat or jacket.

Now that is what i'm looking forward too. Susan

Christmas still exists down here. Just tell them that Santa will trade his sleigh for a surfboard.

I've never had a white Christmas--even when I lived in PA for 3 years as a kid. My dad lives in DC for the past 20 years..maybe once or twice they might have had a white Christmas (if that).

I think you'll be able to celebrate just fine.

Deep South here - if I needed snow to have Christmas, I would be out of luck for the most part (has happened a very few times in my 47 years).

 

[curlybop]

No way! I can not stand the snow/ice....it's so dangerous.

 

[AuntieM03]

I live in Southern California, so nope I don't need it.

 

[Hercules10]

No. I HATE snow.

Yes, I know I live in CT. I still hate snow.

U R pretty much screwed aren't 'chu?

 

[Melwood23]

NO!

And can I come with ya...
I am in that state below you and I wanna move to a warm, sunny place.
I can live with out snow for Christmas...that is what WDW is for!

I've got my fingers crossed that it won't be too bad this year. Not like that one snowstorm we had last year where I was up to my hips in it

It's not that I need snow, but I do need a chill in the air. I lived in FL for 3 Christmases and could never get past the weirdness of buying a christmas tree in shorts.

Was your co-worker singing "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow"? Just curious.
