White Christmas 2025? Forecaster Predicts Snow
11 Dec
Summary
- A new report suggests 2025 might bring a white Christmas to the UK.
- Snowfall is predicted from Scotland down to Northern England.
- Met Office forecast is more cautious, citing changeable Atlantic weather patterns.
As Christmas 2025 approaches, speculation is mounting about the possibility of a white Christmas, a rare event in the UK. One weather forecaster, NetWeather, has indicated a potential for significant snowfall, particularly in a band stretching from Scotland down to Northern England, with Scotland expected to bear the brunt of the impact.
This prediction suggests areas like Glasgow, Manchester, and Derby could experience snow on Christmas Day. However, the official Met Office forecast presents a more moderate view. Their outlook for the period leading up to Christmas anticipates a continuation of Atlantic weather systems bringing rain and wind.
Looking further, the Met Office's extended forecast for Christmas Eve through early January suggests a changeable pattern with spells of rain and showers, interspersed with drier interludes. While temperatures are expected to be near normal, the potential for frost and fog exists during drier periods, with any snowfall most likely over higher ground in the north.
