No Christmas Day snow for Cardiff

It’s time to announce there will be no snow before or after Christmas, so no white Christmas Day in the offing for Cardiff. Instead it will be wet, unsettled, and very windy at time. So the run up to Christmas has been everything but Christmassy but there is an outside chance Scotland could see some of the white stuff. The bookies have Cardiff 5/1 at for snow falling on Cardiff.
Since 1960, snow as fallen on Christmas Day in Cardiff only four times in 1990, 1993, 2001 and 2004.
Despite the weather in the UK being notoriously dreary, it never tends to snow much meaning we rarely have snow fall on Christmas day or any day. Growing up, you here tales from your parents about snowy Christmases but realize when you get older they didn’t happen as frequent as you thought. I am already thinking about next Christmas and will it be white and by the summer start the conversation "Will we, won't we?" and the bookies will start taking white Christmas bets earnest. Some old guy will pop-up TV and tell the world this winter will be the coldest on record, owing to the fact is wife’s big toe is throbbing.
