A white December, but no snow on Christmas Day

It’ll be a white December, but no snow on Christmas Day, according to long-range weather guru Ken Ring.

The New Zealander, who predicted the deadly Christchurch earthquake and Ireland’s arctic winter in 2010, also forecast the country’s record-breaking July heat wave with uncanny accuracy back in January.

The TV forecaster, who uses the moon, sun and tidal activity to make his forecasts, expects snow in Ireland in December but we may just miss out on a white Christmas.
