are always unpredictable and recent years have seen
warmer Septembers than Augusts. Throughout the summer
months the weather could be very warm in the high 20s,
or it could just be cool and rainy. The average
high temperature peaks in summer – July and August - are
a favourable 22°C. The average low temperature in
peak summer is 13°C. Rainfall in summer is around
50 to 60mm per month, making it very marginally the
driest time of year.

WHAT
TO WEAR IN SUMMER IN LONDON |
|
|
|
|
|
London is full of amazing
things to do and places to go. Have a look through
the site and see what you can find that takes your
fancy! |

Since the summer weather is so
changeable, you should always bring a mix of clothes.
And you'll notice that even when there's only a glimpse
of sun in London, the teens and twenty-somethings
suddenly appear in small tops, short skirts and anything
else that will give them a hope of a sun tan! We
don't tell you what to do in London, we also advise you
on what to wear!
