What December feels like
December snow is real up here but unreliable — some winters the mountain towns get several proper falls and some winters it is just cold rain. The downtown holiday markets and the Biltmore evenings carry the month either way.
Winter is doing its thing: 2.7 in of snow in a typical December, with fresh snow on about 2 days. about 18 nights dip below freezing.
