Bookies give odds on snowfall on Christmas Day with Glasgow, Edinburgh and Newcastle leading the way
With Christmas Day now just under two months away, bookies are giving odds on potential snowfall at a variety of different locations this year.
The north is the favourite to see snowfall on Christmas Day this year with Glasgow, Edinburgh and Newcastle leading the way at 3/1.
William Hill have a whole host of odds available around snow for this Christmas Day with airports all over the UK and Ireland featuring in the market.
| Snow on Christmas Day | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Glasgow (Airport) | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Edinburgh (Airport) | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Newcastle (Airport) | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Belfast (Airport) | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Manchester (Airport) | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Liverpool (Airport) | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Birmingham (Airport) | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| London (City Airport) | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Cardiff (Airport) | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Dublin (Airport) | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Odds are all based on different airports as that is where Met Office weather stations tend to be
The Met Office have their weather stations across airports in the UK and these are typically where we have seen their snowfall stats recorded in the past.
Airport weather stations are mainly used for pilot safety but the wide-open space that is available is perfect for noting the weather.
Other Airport's that feature in the betting include Bristol which is the outsider in this betting market at 7/1.
Will It Snow In The UK This Christmas (White Christmas Odds)
Earlier this month we saw odds slashed on a White Christmas this year with a 55% chance it happens
The chance of a White Christmas this year strengthened earlier this month with bookmakers making it 4/5 from 2/1 that it happens this year.
According to odds, there's now a 55% chance that we see a White Christmas ahead of an expected cold Winter period.
The last widespread White Christmas we had in the UK was back in 2010 with snow or sleet at 83% of the recording stations.
