Cardiff in the deep snow - the big Christmas freeze of December 2010 in photos

Cardiff hasn’t seen a White Christmas for a decade, but back in December 2010 the capital looked beautifully festive, with snow covering the streets and surrounding hills.

Here’s 22 photos taken in the centre and in the hills around Cefn Onn in north Cardiff.

Will it be a white Christmas this year?

Sadly, it seems highly unlikely, with the bookies giving odds of 8/1 (11.1% chance) against snow falling on Christmas Day 2020.
