It's been five years since the UK had its last White Christmas, but the wait may soon be over.

Bookmakers are offering odds as low as 5/2 that their could be snow on the ground in parts of the United Kingdom on December 25, with London's odds slightly longer at 3/1. London is set for five days of snow and ice over the festive period, according to AccuWeather, though it remains to be seen whether this will include Christmas Day itself. When it comes to the minimum temperatures we can expect, it might be time to have those gloves at the ready as it might be getting as low as -16 degrees. Brrrr.
