Christmas is rapidly approaching, and as the temperatures drop, we all wonder if a white Christmas Would be possible in Texas.

The idea of waking up with snow on the ground Christmas morning honestly sounds pretty cool. I'm sure it would make the day feel even more festive.

But when it comes to snowfall in Texas, where can you find it the most often? We decided to look up what cities in Texas are expected to receive the most snow in 2023 -- and who knows, maybe they'd be one of the lucky cities to have a white Christmas.

In all actuality, it's predicted that Texas only has about a 1-10% chance of a white Christmas, which is defined as having 1 or more inches of snow on the ground, according to NBC DFW.

Texans often celebrate this meteorological anomaly with a sense of wonder and excitement.
