A white christmas is one that has had or has during the christmas holiday day, snow that either has fallen and stuck, blanketing the ground, or has snow that falls on Christmas day. Basically the "white" refers to the snow.
Hope this helps...

A white Christmas is one with snow. Its called that because in the northern hemisphere Christmas falls in the winter and people have associated Christmas with snow.

A white Christmas is one with snow. In Australia I hear they go to the beach for Christmas.

A Christmas where snow covers the ground. Because clean snow is white, a nice, thick layer of snow blankets everything all in white.
