Abstract:
|
The notion of White Christmas, for instance snow conditions at Christmas day, is occasionally discussed among people in certain countries in the northern hemisphere. In this paper, the state of snow occurrence at Christmas day at locations in Sweden are primarily considered binary events and common methodology for statistical analysis of time series with binary responses is employed to investigate possible trend over time. None of the six locations studied showed a significant change over time.
