You'll have to look pretty far back to see when Jersey had a White Christmas last.

According to Patch, New York has had 15 White Christmases since 1912, and Philadelphia has had 7 White Christmases since 1948.

The last time Jersey had anything close to a White Christmas was back in 2009, so we are definitely due for some powder on Christmas Morning.
