Weather (temperature now: Click for Glasgow, United Kingdom Forecast)

Glasgow's weather is extremely variable. In December we could have sun, rain, snow, wind, fog etc., possibly all in the same day. It is likely to be fairly cold: freezing temperatures during the day would not be unusual.

More positively, it is also very possible to have clear, bright and sunny (although cold) days in December. But be prepared: bring a raincoat and/or an umbrella.
