When Do You Expect the First Snowfall to Happen In Your Area?

When hell freezes over

Aw, come on Zach...where's your winter spirit?

I am not quite familiar with the "timing" of Norman's wintry precip, so I'll predict that sometime around mid-December will be our first snowfall.

Hmm, did someone forget where I lived?

Aww i believe many of us in the deep south will see snow this year and will accumulate  , unlike last winter when I had snow showers that didnt stick  maybe around late december mid/late january and or early to mid February we may see snow in my area of Texas. we have been getting snow every year since 2008 and I have no doubt we wont see any this year, im sure of it 

UGH, I hate winters like that where we only see a few snow showers/flurries and that's it although we haven't had a winter like that in years. What I hate even more is winters where we see more ice than snow. The icicles are pretty to look at, but it's nothing but an inconvenience.  The last time we have a crippling icestorm was in January 29, 2005 and surprisingly we have had mostly nothing but snow the following winters since. Another surprise was how great last winter was snowfall wise, last winter was the first time I saw double digit snowfall, we picked up 10 inches total.

EDIT: Also I know we Southerners get made fun of for thinking 40's and 50's are cold, but do we get any merit for these temps?

@ weather lover: IKR i feel ya, our record snowfall ever was a mindboggling 30 inches from 1 storm way back in valentines day 1895 the most to ever fall anywhere on the gulf coast, althogh I personaly believe we will see at least 1 accumulating snowfall this winter, we may never see anything like that ever again lol.

40s and 50s dont scare me bring on the 10s and 20s lol weve had a whole week of teens and twentys for 2 winters in a row.

Just get outa here. Texas doesn't get that cold. Maybe northern Texas does, but since you said you were in Ike, you live near the coast. Give me your location so I can look up the weather data.

Seeing that the Greenland Block setup is likely again this year, I'd give it Late December and into January... We had several snow events this past year with the same setup, sticking and accumulating several times.

Dude, I NAILED IT   

We currently have a dusting, and may get an inch before all's said and done.  Areas just east of me may get 3-6 inches of lake effect.

For the 2014-15 Winter I'm thinking around January 30th.

Hopefully never.  I didn't move to Florida to shovel snow.
