Weather will go crazy in Hungary before Christmas

Many Hungarians dream about celebrating Christmas and New Year’s Eve in snowfall, but a white Christmas has been a rare phenomenon recently, except for the mountainous areas. Meteorologists talked about one scenario in early December that would have resulted in a snowy year-end. However, the possibility of that decreases every day. Instead, experts say we should prepare for something unexpected in the coming days. Below you may read the details.

According to the Hungarian Meteorological Services (Országos Meteorológiai Szolgálat), Wednesday will be cloudy, foggy and wet. Rains will be common in the plains, while Alpokalja, West Hungary, and the country’s northern regions will experience freezing rains. The daily temperature will rise to 0-5 °C. Thankfully, the night will not be as cold as before. Thermometres will show -2 and +3 °C.

Based on Időkép, on Thursday, freezing rains will rule Transdanubia. The day will be like Wednesday: rainy, cloudy, foggy and humid. Rains will be scarce, and winds will get strong only in the Transdanubia. However, the daily maximums will reach even 11 °C in the southeastern areas.
