1xBet’s Odds at 2 predict a 50% chance that Aberdeen (Airport) will have snow on Christmas Day ::: Discover the current Odds now HERE

Aberdeen (Airport)

If you want to boost your chances of a white Christmas this festive season, make your way to Aberdeen.

The scenic Scottish city is the bookies’ favorite to experience snow on December 25, 2024.

The odds are in Aberdeen Airport’s favor to experience at least one snowflake, which might not be ideal news to hear if you are jetting off on Christmas Day or landing at the airport.

However, it might be music to your ears if you live in Aberdeen and near the airport.

Edinburgh (Airport)

Scotland’s capital may not escape the snowy weather, either. If you look at Edinburgh’s climate patterns and weather conditions throughout the years, snow is likely to fall during December, meaning it has a good chance of experiencing a white Christmas.

However, snow is more likely to melt in a major city, so a light flurry might not last long. Plus, the country’s climate can result in snow turning to sleet or rain rather quickly.

Glasgow (Airport)

If you have your heart set on building a snowman with the kids or enjoying a snow fight with the whole clan, Scotland might be a wise choice for a festive getaway.

While the odds are on Aberdeen (Airport) and Edinburgh (Airport) to experience a white Christmas, it wouldn’t be a huge shock if snow descends on atmospheric Glasgow.

However, as the city is located on the West Coast of Scotland and has a low altitude, it is less likely to experience snow on Christmas Day.

Newcastle (Airport)

Newcastle Airport is the English destination most likely to enjoy a white Christmas this year.

While the odds are higher in the above Scottish cities, Geordies could wake up to a blanket of snow on Christmas morning.

Belfast (Airport)

Belfast is the next most likely destination to have a white Christmas in 2024. It wasn’t long ago that its residents woke up to snow as the city enjoyed its last white Christmas in 2022.

However, snow is more likely to happen from January to March than in December, indicating that a white Christmas is more likely to occur in Scotland.

Manchester (Airport)

Manchester might be better known for plenty of rain, but it is also top of the list for a white Christmas.

While the odds are higher compared to the above destinations, it is the destination most likely to experience snow in the Northwest of England.

Other cities that could have a white Christmas include Cardiff, Leeds, Dublin, Birmingham, Liverpool, and London, to name a few.

If you believe London (City Airport) will have snow on Christmas Day, you could win $800 by betting $100 at 1xBet if it happens.
