A White Christmas in Winter 2010/2011? - By: Marie Coles

Dreaming of a White Christmas in 2010/2011! We’re not only speaking of a Dreaming of a White Christmas Christmas party here either as snow is expected this year. The weather is set to be up and down this season with little chance of snow on Christmas day, a milder November and bouts of snowfall not expected till January, hopefully making 2010/2011’s winter a milder one overall.

After a warm summer, October has finally once again arrived bringing a chillier wind, rain fall and nigh time temperatures of under 0 degrees. Now heading towards the beginning of November I’m sure you are all worrying about the months ahead after last year’s extreme cold.

Last year, we saw the heaviest snow in 18 years with temperatures dipping below the national average. The south of England saw in areas 25cm of snow, which disrupted and cancelled services, from airplanes to trains to and from major cities. Many of you ended up snuggled at home, unable to get to work – granted you got a few days off but catching up with all that work was no easy task!

In the winter of 2010/2011, we are unlikely to see a drastic repeat of last year’s extreme weather as it is going to be quite a mixed winter weather wise according to experts. The first half of November according to weather forecasters is set to be cold (just under average), quite dry and mild compared to last year. In late November, rainfall will increase and the temperature will drop low enough for snow in the northern regions and Scotland.

December as usual is expected to be cold, with temperatures nearly 2% below the average. Overall December is expected to be drier than usual, lowering the likelihood of massive bouts of snow. This will, however change in January as the levels of rain increase and the cold bout continues.

With the decreased chance of snow in the Christmas party season, it looks like there’s little chance of Christmas parties of being cancelled due to snow. But don’t forget it is still going to be chilly in December, so dress up warm!
