It’s Snow Joke, Festive Flurry Increasingly More Likely

William Hill have significantly cut the odds of a White Christmas throughout the country with long range forecasts predicting a big freeze. Aberdeen is the favourite to see snow, slashed from 3/1 to 2/1 and London in from 6/1 to 4/1.

Newcastle is currently William Hill punters’ favourite to see snow on Christmas day with bets of up to £200 placed at odds ranging from 7/1 to 4/1.

“We have tried to pre-empt the meteorological punters by slashing our white Christmas prices but we do not think this will deter them with snow looking ever more likely to fall on the 25^th,” said William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly.

White Christmas odds: 2/1 Aberdeen; 5/2 Edinburgh; 5/2 Glasgow; 4/1 Belfast; London; 4/1 Newcastle; 5/1 Birmingham; 5/1 Dublin; 5/1 Leeds; 5/1 Liverpool; 5/1 Manchester; 6/1 Bristol; 6/1 Cardiff
