Some people are big fans of gazing outside to see snowflakes gracefully falling on the ground on Christmas Day, bringing back nostalgia of Bing Crosby playing on the radio with a warm fireplace roaring in the background while the kids open up their gifts from Santa.  

Those who lived through the horrendous 2022 Christmas Blizzard here in Buffalo, New York may disagree, but their ears still perk up when the idea of a “White Christmas” in Western New York is brought up. 

2023 saw no snow for Buffalo on December 25th, but how is the forecast looking for 2024?

Will We See A White Christmas This Year In Buffalo?

According to 2025’s edition of The Old Farmer’s Almanac, Buffalo could be seeing flakes fly when Santa comes. 

Although they’re calling for an average of 38 degrees this December (4 degrees higher than usual), we are looking to see some snowy forecasts between December 6th and December 13th.

Additionally, the Old Farmer’s Almanac is predicting that although it will be warmer from December 14th to the 25th, we can expect snow to arrive to the 716 from December 26th through the end of the year. 

That kind of puts a damper on New Year’s Eve, but hey, maybe we can have some snow on our lawns this year? As long as it’s reasonable. No one wants to shovel on Christmas.
