Time To Gamble On Winter Weather: Bookies Offer Odds On White Christmas

I might seem very bizarre to contemplate betting on the weather in the capital on a sunny day in August, but the leaves show hints of changing their hue and the kids will soon be back at school. Novelty betting often offers long term gambles so requires a discerning punter to be patient and not in need of the immediate adrenalin rush of betting on the 4 0'clock at Kempton. Having said that with a little research there is often good value to be found in these unusual books. Online Bookmakers Paddy Power are offering odds of 11/4 thatthere will be a white Christmas in London but the market closes on Sunday 28th August.

The fact that this bet will be unavailable after the 28th suggests a couple of thought processes. One is that with a fairly average Summer coming to an end on the back of a hot Spring the meteorologists will as yet be in no position to offer any surefire predictions for the months ahead so the gamble is a very open one. The second consideration is that as the weather patterns become clearer to the weather forecasters there will be less of an option for the bookies to make their money and the prices will lengthen or shorten accordingly.
