It's played usually in December, but "White Christmas" is really a warm weather song.
No, wait, hear me out. Here's the situation: the Crosby character is sitting on the steps of his dressing room in the middle of what passes for winter in Southern California, and trying to cool off. So this is the verse he sings:
The sun is shining, the grass is green
The orange and the palm trees sway.
There's never been such a day
in Beverly Hills, L.A.
But it's December twenty-fourth
And I am longing to be up North.
Okay, now pour yourself a Slushie and come in on the chorus.
