UK Forecast Predicts Mild and Snowless Christmas Day

The Met Office anticipates settled, cloudy, and dry conditions for most of the UK on December 25, with little chance of snow.

  • The Met Office predicts that Christmas Day in the UK will be mild, cloudy, and largely dry, with temperatures widely above freezing.
  • A white Christmas is unlikely, as high-pressure systems are expected to bring settled conditions across much of the country.
  • The only areas with a small chance of rain or snow are the hills and mountains in northwest Scotland, though temperatures there are also expected to be mild.
  • The last widespread white Christmas in the UK occurred in 2010, with snow on the ground at 83% of weather stations; 2023 saw snow falling at 11% of stations but none settling.
  • In the days leading up to Christmas, parts of the UK may face strong winds and heavy rain, with yellow weather warnings issued for some regions.
