    Middle of next week apparently, the North and Scotland first followed by some snow in the South.

    As a sceptic, I'll believe it when it happens, as we've had forecasts of heavy snow before that have never materialised.

    The fact that we've had a dusting a couple of days ago does auger well for more snow the deeper into winter we go.

        The uk media do love a snow scare, and to be honest the midlands upwards get a fair share every winter.
        We won’t be affected (as in south wales), we never are and that beast from the east back in 2018 was a complete freak of nature.
        I’d imagine it’ll affect a lot of games around the country but isn’t this the case every season this time of the year?

                  Just drove through. No snow but the police were cleaning up after an accident.

                      Great for a day or two but then just annoying as unlike countries that are used to it, everything here just grinds to a holt when the roads cannot be cleared of it

                        Would be great if it snowed on Christmas Eve, lovely and white on Christmas Day, all gone by Boxing Day morning for the football.

                          The Beast from the East was hardly a freak of nature considering we had a foot of snow only 8 years earlier in December 2010 that lasted well beyond Christmas Day. It tends to be cyclical even allowing for Climate Change so it wouldn't be a complete surprise if we had a few bad winters now and again.

                            New York gets an average of 30 inches of snow a year. It hasn't snowed more than an inch here in over 700 days. The last significant snowfall I can remember was in February 2021.

                              Yep, seems like we haven’t had proper snow in about 2 years.
