Will Hungary have a white Christmas? – weather forecast for Christmas week
Unfortunately, in most parts of Hungary, the chances of a white Christmas are increasingly close to zero. Strong breezy but mild early spring days are forecast from Friday, with temperatures in the south-west approaching 15 degrees on Christmas Eve.
Predictions have not been good for a white Christmas, and according to Portfolio, it is now becoming increasingly clear that the trend, which is sad for many, will not be broken this time either. This means that most of Hungary is not going to have a white Christmas.
“Who” took white Christmas away from us?
Cyclones moving west to east from the Atlantic will meet each other in the second half of the week, with a strengthening westerly flow and much milder, sometimes moist air masses than the season. On Christmas Eve, 15 degrees in the southwest is possible.
According to the forecast of the weather forecast forecast service Időkép, strong and stormy westerly winds will be frequent on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with intermittent rain and showers and no sign of winter temperatures. There will be only a few spells of light frost overnight, with highs of 10 degrees and above in the daytime, and temperatures in the southwest approaching 15 degrees on Sunday.
The remaining snow cover in the mountains is also expected to melt by the holidays. Thus, the chances of a white Christmas in most part os the country are getting closer to zero, they added.
Front after front in the second half of the week
The calm period ends, with windy, occasionally wet weather replacing the fog. The first cold front arrives today, according to Időkép. The anticyclone, which has been calm, causing persistent fog in several places, will be replaced by cyclones and their fronts.
On Wednesday, morning we can expect foggy weather over a large area, but during the day, the first cold front will arrive from the northwest. The front will not bring much precipitation, with a few light showers in the northwest.
However, northwesterly winds are picking up in some areas, breaking up the fog and layer clouds that have been filling our basin. Highs will be between 0 and 10 degrees Celsius, with the coldest in the foggiest areas.
On Thursday afternoon, a warm front will move over us from the northwest, with increasing rain and snow in the northeast from the evening. Southwest winds will be strong in many places during the day, strong in the north, with highs of 3 to 9 degrees in the afternoon.
