Daily Telegraph provides the odds for your location.

I'm not a betting man, but if I was I'd go for Leeds at 7/2 with
Ladbrokes.
10/1 for Penzance seems very reasonable :-)
Using my data the odds for Haytor (snow lying) are 3/1 .
I can never remember any in my lifetime here at Southend-on-Sea, a couple
of years when it stayed about and was thawing, but never actually snowed
on the day. So my odds would need to be 55 : 1
One of the things I enjoy about living at altitude. It has its downsides of
course with lots of fog and rain but that first white Christmas back in 2004
when we had heavy snow showers and we made a small snowman will be etched in
my memory forever. I'll let you imagine how animated I was :-)
