Damp Christmas on the cards

With a 35 per cent chance of rain and a 20 per cent chance of thunderstorms, party-goers are advised to kit themselves with umbrellas and water-resistant overcoats while venturing out-doors.

Wrapping up warm is also strongly suggested. Temperatures are also expected to steadily drop over the next couple of days, reaching maximum temperatures of 15 degrees and lowering to 10 degrees on Saturday.

The lowest point will be on Monday – with a high temperature of 14 degrees and a low temperature of 9 degrees.
