White Christmas on the horizon? Snow and blizzards expected across Hungary!
Are you expecting a white Christmas? ❄️
On the fourth Sunday of Advent, a wavy frontal system approaching from the northwest will bring significant weather changes across Hungary. The southern winds are expected to pick up, with increasing cloud cover spreading over the country. By the afternoon, light precipitation may occur in northern regions, followed by more widespread rainfall and snowfall later in the evening.
According to Időkép, snow and sleet are forecasted for northern and northeastern areas, while rain is expected elsewhere. Around Budapest and in the Northern Mountains, a few centimetres of snow accumulation is likely by midnight.
The beginning of next week will see a Mediterranean cyclone sweeping across Hungary, bringing additional precipitation. On Monday, most parts of the country, except the northwestern and northern Great Plain regions, could experience snowfall or sleet. The real highlight comes on Tuesday, Christmas Eve, when significant snowfall is anticipated, particularly in eastern parts of the country.
This snowfall could create a picturesque white landscape across many regions—a rare sight for the holiday in recent years. However, along with the snow, strong winds are forecasted, leading to the possibility of blizzards and drifting snow, especially in open areas.
While many eagerly anticipate a white Christmas, travellers and residents should prepare for potential disruptions caused by the strong winds and snowdrifts. Stay tuned for updates as weather conditions unfold.
