Live forecasts update automatically; written guidance last reviewed 16 June 2026 by the Reading Wire weather desk. Data from national met services via Open-Meteo.

The live forecast above shows London’s current conditions and the next few hours. For the rest of the day, expect a mostly cloudy sky with a moderate southerly breeze and temperatures holding near the values you see.

What does the BBC London weather forecast cover?

The BBC London forecast covers Greater London and the Home Counties, drawing on Met Office data. It gives you a detailed look at temperature, wind speed, chance of rain and visibility across the capital, updated several times a day.

Will the weather stay settled for the rest of the week?

At this point in the season, high pressure often blocks Atlantic systems, so you can expect dry but often overcast conditions. The live forecast above shows any showers or brighter spells for the coming days. Keep an eye on the wind strength too – it can make a London day feel cooler than the thermostat suggests.

Does the BBC London weather forecast include pollen or UV?

The BBC London weather page on the BBC website includes pollen levels (grass, tree, weed) and UV index. You can also check the Met Office’s dedicated pollen forecast for more detail.

How does the BBC London forecast compare to the Met Office’s?

Both use the same core data from the Met Office. The BBC adds its own presentation and sometimes a slightly different emphasis on timing of rain or cloud break. For day‑to‑day planning they are equally reliable.

Is the live forecast above the same as the one on the BBC website?

Our live feed pulls from the same public data the BBC uses. It updates automatically and shows the same temperature, wind and precipitation information you’d see on the official BBC Weather page.
