00:00Will the UK wake up to a white Christmas, or is it just a frosty tease?
00:04Here is the latest update, and it might surprise you.
00:07The Met Office says Christmas Day will be cold, windy, and bright for many.
00:11Temperatures will sit just below average, but strong easterly winds will make it feel much colder.
00:16Most areas will see highs of just 4 to 5 degrees.
00:20Add the wind chill, and it could feel close to freezing all day.
00:23For snow lovers, there is some hope, but only a little.
00:26Forecasters say there is a very small chance of snow flurries over Dartmoor
00:30as rain pushes into parts of Devon and Cornwall.
00:33Most of the UK will stay dry with sunny spells.
00:36Many will wake up to a frosty Christmas morning.
00:39Northern Scotland could plunge to minus 5 overnight.
00:42And swimmers in the south could face rough seas and big waves.
00:46But the big twist comes later.
00:48Weather maps suggest snow could return on New Year's Eve,
00:50with the feared beast from the east making a comeback.
00:53Some eastern areas could feel as cold as minus 6.
00:56Driven by fierce winds from the east,
00:59bookies say Edinburgh is most likely to see snow.
01:02While London faces much slimmer odds.
01:04So no white Christmas for most.
01:06But winter is far from done.
