Keep a brolly handy for the next few hours — the live forecast above shows a spell of rain crossing the capital before brighter spells move in from the west later this afternoon.

What’s the outlook for the next few days?

Tomorrow brings a drier start for central London, though cloud thickens from the west by lunchtime with patchy light rain possible for the outer boroughs. The weather in London tomorrow will feel cool for early summer, with highs a couple of degrees below the seasonal average. Into the weekend, a ridge of high pressure builds, giving more settled conditions across the Home Counties. Those checking weather in London 10 days ahead can expect a return to typical June warmth by the middle of next week, though a weak front may bring a brief showery interlude around Tuesday. For longer-range plans, the London weather 30 days outlook suggests a mostly dry and warm spell, but confidence is low beyond two weeks. More detail on the London weather 15 days can be found in our extended forecast.

How does the capital’s weather compare to elsewhere?

London often stays a couple of degrees warmer than surrounding counties due to the urban heat island effect. Coastal areas such as Brighton and Southend are typically 3–4 °C cooler and breezier, while inland parts of Surrey and Kent see similar temperatures but fewer afternoon showers. For travellers, our UK weather hub covers neighbouring regions, including Birmingham Weather and Bristol Weather.
