If you asked someone what weather they want for the festive period the chances are they will say they're 'dreaming of a white Christmas'. 

But being in the south of England the chances of waking up to snow is quite rare thanks to our warm temperatures. 

Especially seeing as recently Watford has been met with dark clouds and not a lot of sunshine. 

But don't worry all hope of a white Christmas as we've looked at the Met Office's latest report for the week ahead.

See the weather for the festive period: 

Starting on Chrismtas Eve you can expect temperatures from between two degrees in the early morning and highs of four, in terms of snow, you might want an umbrella instead as it's expected to rain a lot with dark clouds too. 

On Christmas Day there will be some sunshine amongst the dark clouds but it will still be a cold and rainy day with temperatures at 3 degrees.

Boxing Day will see more rain and dark clouds, plus you'll need a coat with freezing temperatures too. 

So unfortunately so far, it looks like you'll need artificial snow if you're still dreaming of a white Christmas.
