the Netherlands this year, just like last year, a Christmas without snow. For those of you who want to think huge mountains of snow we have here are some of the most memorable white christmas in your country one step at a time.
Who’s on the island living, may remember the Christmas of 1981, and still does. However, there are also more recent, a white christmas, even in this century, the layers from there at Christmas several times, beautiful, white.
But what exactly is a white Christmas anyway? All of the meteorological factors have an official definition, and there is a sneeuwkerst is no exception to the rule. According to the KNMI, the Netherlands has a real white Christmas, as The Staff at both of the christmas season is a closed snow coverage, located.
Which are the best for rare events, even though we were there in the last ten years in the Netherlands, however, the two have had, which is also one after another fell down. For example, the christmas season of 2009 and 2010, all four of the official white.
2009 to 2010: dual in white Christmas < / p> in the Netherlands on the 25th and 26th of december, 2010, practically the whole of the land in a blanket of snow up to 30 centimetres thick. It was, for the most part, a few days ago, all of the cases, and did a fresh dooiaanval-to-face. The year before, was in the north, locally even 40 centimeters.
finally, The KNMI also keeps track of whether or not there is a part of white Christmas. This is the case, for example, if The Staff is no snow on the ground, but in other parts of the country. It is also a part of white Christmas, if only in the First or Second Day of snow.
Also in 2010, it is not been the case, but recent examples include the winters of 2001 and 2005. When the north and in the south-east of the Netherlands on the Second day of Christmas, a thin layer of snow is received.

By way of comparison: in the same period of time no less than took place fifteen times. As a part of white Christmas that is so common in the last century, on average every four years.
For all the people in the north, the white Christmas of 1981 is a memorable one. While it’s in the middle of the country, it had to do with a carpet of ‘only’ from 11 to 20 inches, the north deal with significantly more, and even the swirling snow. On the island were snow dunes on one and a half meters in height.
In the combination, with the real freezing cold we have a little bit more time. For example, in the Netherlands in 1964, a year after one of the coldest winters of the century, (1963), which is not only a carpet but also a strong frost is in the christmas spirit. Also around the a white Christmas in 1938, the Netherlands had lows for each day of minus 10 degrees celsius. “Good schaatsweer”, this is how it is he said that Christmas together.

Although the snow in the us, the country is also highly dependent on the variable wind direction and may increase the chances of a white Christmas, with an increase of the average temperature. The meteorological office expects in the “potential sneeuwdagen’, i.e. the day on which the average temperature is below 0.
we were able to get it dooien, but due to a frost in the night, with a little bit of luck, however, and a carpet of shapes. The meteorological office are expected in the Netherlands for thirty years, only four out of twelve of these potential sneeuwdagen per year, you’ll see.

Fifty years ago, the average temperature in december is 2.9 degrees. This has now risen to 4 degrees celsius. And in december 2019, according to Weeronline, probably at an average of 5.8 degrees celsius.
