A Weiße Christmas



When Did You Last Have a White Christmas is a fantastic visualization of Germany's historical winter snow data. The visualization uses small multiples to show all the white Christmases at different German locations in the past 71 years.

When Did You Last Have a White Christmas doesn't involve any maps but it does use location data. If you enter the name of a German town or city the application will create a fantastic poster showing which years at that location had snow at Christmas since 1948. The visualization uses small multiples of different colored Christmas trees to show years which had snow, one day of snow or snow every day over the Christmas period.

You can download your town's Christmas snow visualization as a PDF file. This means that you can print out your own White Christmas visualization as a poster or even to use as wrapping paper for your Christmas presents.
