And there is no doubt that the last 5-10 years have had many less white christmases than in the past. Used to be a white x-mas was the norm and of late it is the exception. Used to be able to x-country ski the north shore in Dec no problem, these days folks better bring hiking boots. It's not a matter of less precipitation -- its simply warmer in November and December.
Minnesota is not alone of course in experiencing such dramatic change as a visit to many glacier lodge in glacier national park would reveal--better get there soon while there still are glaciers, which are receding fast.
