Hide AdWeather in Sheffield on Christmas Eve
December 24 is set to be a bright, mild, if gusty Saturday to reward everyone for getting through their pre-Chrimbo working week. Temperatures in Sheffield will hover around 6C during the day, with some wintery sun in the morning.
Light clouds will arrive from 2pm and there is even a chance of short showers at 9pm, but that should be the last of any rain for the festive weekend. It’s especially good news for anyone making use of a rare ‘Christmas Eve on Saturday’ to plan a big festive night, as it should remain dry and mild into the early hours of Christmas morning.
Weather in Sheffield on Christmas Day
The Met Office is not predicting a white Christmas for Sheffield. Instead, December 25 will likely be clouded over and blustery, with mild temperatures reaching highs of 9C and little chance of rain.
Weather in Sheffield on Boxing Day
December 24 will feel much chillier by comparison. Forecasters say an arctic wind will arrive and drive temperatures down to around 1C or even 0C by morning. It means Boxing Day will largely be cloudy and come with a biting blustery wind – but, again, little chance of rain or snow at least.
