Residents of britain will greet christmas Day with "dry and cloudy" conditions, as the Met office has reported that "no snow or frost" is anticipated. Meteorologists indicated that the "exceptionally mild" temperatures experienced on christmas Eve are likely to persist until just before the new year. Met office meteorologist tom Morgan noted that this year will feature a "green Christmas" since no snow or frost is predicted anywhere across the nation. "This is great news for anyone with travel plans over the next few days, as no weather advisories are in place, and there will be no extreme weather - although this isn’t ideal for those seeking a holiday atmosphere, since certainly no snow or frost is on the horizon. "There’s definitely no snow forecast for anywhere in the UK - hence, it will indeed be a green Christmas." He also stated: "Christmas Eve has been quite mild - while we didn’t break any records, we did record a high of 14.8C in Aberdeen, which is exceptionally warm for christmas Eve. "The weather will remain similar throughout the christmas period, meaning christmas Day will once again start off cloudy and very mild. "For those in northern Scotland, it will be quite windy with gales affecting the far north and some rain." Unfortunately, the lack of snow on christmas Day won’t be replaced by much sunshine, as the skies across the nation are expected to stay overcast, with only a few exceptions. Morgan explained: "For the most part, it will be a dry and cloudy day. "A handful of areas will catch a few glimpses of sunshine, but you’ll need to be fortunate to see much brightness on christmas Day." "A few more locations will enjoy "glimmers of brightness" on Boxing Day, Morgan mentioned. "Boxing Day will closely resemble christmas Day - it will remain another cloudy and mild day, with a few areas experiencing some brightness, especially in northeast england and the Midlands. "Certain regions in northern Scotland, such as the Shetland Isles, should expect some sunshine." The Met office indicated that the weather is projected to shift towards january 30, bringing colder and wetter conditions across the UK. Morgan stated: "There won’t be significant changes through the remainder of this week and into the weekend, but as we approach the New Year, we may witness a shift to cooler and wetter weather more broadly. "We could experience some heavy rainfall at times, and there is a growing possibility of snow - however, it's still too early to predict where that snow might land."
