The days are getting colder in Frankfurt. What are the chances of it snowing at Christmas? Estimates for major metropolitan cities.
An Oktoberfest filled with white dust and small houses has become a rarity in Frankfurt, especially on Christmas Eve. According to weather experts, major metropolitan cities only get snow at Christmas on average every ten years. Trend: decreasing. But there have been almost no white Christmases in other regions of Germany in recent years. So what are the chances there will be a white Christmas in Hesse this year?
In an interview with the t-online Frankfurt editorial team, weather expert Dominik Jung gave at least some hope that snow would fall at Christmas. “This year the signs for a White Christmas are slightly better than average, mainly due to the general weather situation being somewhat cooler,” he said.
However, according to qualified meteorologists, the chances of snowfall between December 24 and 26 are still quite low. Especially in Frankfurt. According to experts, the chance of a white Christmas this year is only around ten percent.
Even if there is no snow in the city in the days before and after Christmas, Frankfurters have many opportunities to feel the Advent spirit. In Frankfurt, as well as in the region, there are many specialty markets that invite you to linger. For example, the highest Christmas market in the region.
