Bookies William Hill are sweating on what will be the biggest ever white Christmas payout should the predicted snow appear on Christmas day. 

Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams told Bettingpro:

"We have taken a record number of white Christmas bets this year and the latest forecast suggests that there is a real chance that the infamous industry Million Pound Payout will happen for the first time.”  
 
It could also be a long, cold winter for bookmakers who have slashed the price of the record coldest temperature in the UK (-27.2 C Jan 10th 1982, Aberdeenshire) from an original 25/1 to 3/1, with bets of up to £800 placed in the last ten days!

William Hill White Christmas Odds: 4/7 Aberdeen (Pittodrie);  8/11 Edinburgh (Castle);  8/11 Glasgow (Cathedral); 1/1 Newcastle (Albermarle); 1/1 Leeds (William Hill Head Office); 1/1 Manchester (Granada Studio); 1/1 Liverpool (Albert Docks); 1/1 York (Church Fenton); 11/10 Belfast (Airport); 11/10 Birmingham (Bullring); 6/5 Dublin (Airport); 5/4 London (Buckingham Palace); 5/4 Cambridge (Andrewsfield); 5/4 Lincoln (Waddington); 5/4 Norwich (Marham); 5/4 Oxford (Brize Norton); 5/4 Bristol (Filton); 5/4 Nottinghamshire (Wagnall); 11/8 Cardiff (Millennium Stadium); 6/4 Exeter (Met Office)
