Thankfully, you can rely on the Farmers’ Almanac to give their best prediction on what the weather is going to be like in New Hampshire and Maine on Christmas Day.
“Here is your Christmas forecast,” the Farmers’ Almanac website said. The prediction covers from Christmas Eve, December 24, until Wednesday, December 27, 2024.
Farmers’ Almanac separated its Christmas weather predictions into zones for various regions of the country. The almanac sectioned off New England and the Northeast into Zone 1, which encompasses New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Washington D.C.

“Wet snow bringing a white Christmas to the north,” the forecast said. “Rain showers to the south.”
