With the ground covered in snow and freezing temperatures in the forecast, could our current snow cover make it to Christmas Day?

Christmas is shown at 50%, meaning that half of the years with snow cover on the 9th had that snow stick around until Christmas. 25% of the the years had the snow stick around until the first of February even! Winter is in firm control of our weather with even colder weather expected tomorrow.
