We could definitely need some snow right now

Poor boy, no snow at Christmas.  I'm sure that the millions of residents of Bangladesh whose lands will be inundated by rising seas would feel sorry for you if they knew you had no snow.  I reckon that those in western Africa watching their relatives shrivel fade away from the hemorrhagic disease brought on by ebola would wish you snow also.  No doubt the North Koreans with their 900-calorie-per-day diet will also feel sorry for you and wish you to have some of the snow that is causing their frostbites this Christmas season.  The Kurds and Syrians, at least those who can still walk and talk, would wish for you a white Christmas as well. 

Yours is truly a sad story.  We wish you prosperity and peace, and our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm actually hoping that it doesn't snow till at least after Christmas.  I got my son some outside toys that I'm really eager to start playing with, and it'll need to be dry for them.  Rain or snow on Christmas day will sort of be a bummer.  Still, I got some indoor things as well, just in case.
