Treetops glistening, children listening and sleigh bells in the snow. Whilst the current weather might feel frosty enough for snowfall, can we expect a White Christmas this December 25th?

00:00 What's the best part about Christmas? Is it sitting by a warm fire with a cuppa on Christmas
00:04 Eve? Is it the smell of mulled wine on Christmas night or is it waking up to a white blanket
00:09 of snow on Christmas morning? Well, most bootmakers declare a white Christmas when just a single
00:14 snowflake falls in the 24 hours of December 25th at one of the 12 major UK airports. With
00:20 that in mind, what are the odds we'll be seeing snow this Christmas? Well, the Met Office
00:23 reports that snow has fallen somewhere in the UK on Christmas Day 38 times in the last
00:29 52 years. And this year's odds give a 2-1 chance of snow falling in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
00:35 There's a 3-1 chance it'll fall in Leeds and 4-1 for Manchester. Meanwhile, there's a 20-1
00:40 chance of snow falling anywhere in Bristol, Liverpool, Newcastle and Gatwick. But there
00:45 is still time for predictions to change, so for anyone on the nice list, it might be worth
00:49 putting in a good word with the big guy.
