Bookies make it 4/5 that we see snow this Christmas Day with snowfall already happening around the UK this month
The betting odds stay at 4/5 that we will see a White Christmas this year, with a 55% chance that we snowfall in some part of the UK.
We've already seen snow in the UK this year and we may well see those odds tumble further as we approach 25th December.
Coral slashed the odds from 2/1 to 4/5 that we see snow on Christmas Day this year after snowfall in the UK earlier in December and those odds remain the same with Christmas in 4 days.
The last widespread White Christmas we had in the UK was back in 2010 with snow or sleet at 83% of the recording stations.
Will It Snow In The UK This Christmas (White Christmas Odds)
Glasgow and Edinburgh the 2/1 favourites to see snow on Christmas Day this year as temperatures drop around the UK
Cold temperatures are currently hitting the UK and that snowfall that we have seen has caused bookies to price up snow in specific areas around the UK on Christmas Day.
Scottish cities Glasgow and Edinburgh both 2/1 joint favourites with bookies with Manchester and Leeds following just behind in the betting.
William Hill say there's a 33% chance of either city seeing snow on Christmas Day with Leeds and Manchester given a 25% probability.
