Surprising weather for Christmas in Hungary

Snowfall is not expected in Hungary at Christmas, so we have to ditch our plans to go sledging or snowballing. However, temperatures will rise a little, so there will be no need to turn our heaters to the max. On the weekend, we can even venture outdoors and get some Vitamin D. 

Sadly, there will be no white Christmas this year. Instead, rainfall is expected on the 24th, which is said to be heavier in the morning. The afternoon will see mild, predominantly dry weather. Saturday will have highs around 10 degrees, but nowhere below 6-7 degrees. There will be no clouds at night, so we may enjoy a bit of stargazing.

• Weather will go crazy in Hungary before Christmas

On 25 December, we will have a chance to soak up some sunshine, although it will be slightly cooler in the morning. In the afternoon, we can expect pleasant weather with temps between 8 °C and 10 °C. Similar weather is forecast for Monday 26 December. However, in the northeastern part of Hungary, showers and even strong gusts of wind can occur.

According to the National Meteorological Service, the weather will likely cool down in the middle of next week, but the days between Christmas and New Year’s Eve look a lot drier, rtl.hu reports.
