There was no White Christmas this year, but a White New Year may well be on the cards for 2025. Snow is expected to fall across large swathes of the UK on New Year’s Day, including the possibility of some in Merseyside – according to weather station data.
Using data from Open Weather, our interactive Snow Map shows which parts of the country can expect some degree of snowfall over the course of the next week, with the heaviest expected in the north of England. The Open Weather data states a weather station in Crosby is forecasting possible snow on January 1 and January 2.
Rain is also forecast though, which will reduce the likelihood of the snow ‘sticking’. The snow will spread down the country on January 2, with light snow forecast as far south as Sussex and Cornwall.
While the Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for rain on New Year’s Day, it is currently not predicting snow for Merseyside. The BBC is also not forecasting snowfall. You can see how much snow is forecast in your area by using our Snow Map below.
