Somewhere, probably. Snow on ground high up, if not actively falling. Met Office roof in London (the official definition, I think): nope.

This is the most recent GEFS ensembles for London
Not showing any chance of a white Christmas, but looks like a chilly outlook from Christmas onward out into early January with a chance of snow after the 26th

Temperatures are at a record high.
The country is boiling.
There is more chance of a white Christmas in the Caribbean.
Season's greetings and all the best to you and yours.

London has been 10-15c in recent days.
Chance of UK white Xmas = zero.

@Whitegold, parts of the UK are typically 20-12 Deg less than London. Scotland is in the UK.

There was a big hailstorm in Dorset yesterday so we've got a chance.

Definitions innit. Grizzle is right, Up to 2006 a White Christmas was a snowflake falling onto the roof od the MET Office in London during the 24h of Christmas Day (roughly 11/1 against) and that's what the bookies would pay out on. Since then, the definition was expanded to the whole of the UK, odds are now up to around evens.
By the old reckoning, last one was 2010.

The interesting thing about that pic, is that there was a driver in that car, who ended up stuck after a plow came through. I think it was several hours before he was rescued.

Got a White Christmas here in Richmond. Just done three laps of the Gallops on my cross country skis. Very thin but cold frozen snow. Bit of a surprise for the dog walkers out with their head torches

@Peter S, excellent. It was +6 C her on the N coast of Ireland but amazing views across to Islay, Jura, Mull and the high peaks of Aran with the clear northerly airflow. Tomorrow/ Sat looks milder but fingers crossed for snow Sun/ Mon as airflow switches back to the north.

Met Office has officially confirmed it is a white Christmas for the UK as a whole. Snow has fallen in several parts of eastern England.
Ahhhhh
