Christmas Day is flying towards us at some speed, and the question on everyone’s lips is will there be a white Christmas in Liverpool?

Last month, betting company Paddy Power gave 8/1 odds of snow falling at Liverpool Airport (the criteria required to constitute a white Christmas).

Their most recent odds have been shortened to 6/4.

Ladbrokes gave out 6/1 November odds for a white Christmas in Liverpool.

This has most recently been shortened to 13/8 suggesting that a white Christmas in Liverpool has become more likely according to the bookies.

Despite the improved odds of a white Christmas, the Met Office are predicting a damp Christmas for Liverpool and little chance in the way of snow.

It looks set to be a drizzly start to the day, with a 50 per cent chance of light rain through the morning, although this should ease completely by the early afternoon.

It shouldn’t feel too icy through the day, with temperatures dropping to a low of 5°C until the late hours of the day.

The temperature will feel much colder at around 0 or -1°C heading into Boxing Day.

The chance of rain is set to increase, with heavier showers set to hit the capital in the early hours of Boxing Day.
