About London
It may seem hard to believe that this small, cold, wet island once held dominion over three quarters of the globe.
The pomp and circumstance of previous centuries may have dwindled and the monarchy takes daily batterings in the local press, yet the UK and its people remain a fiercely proud nation. The past 100 years have seen a vast transformation as the country came to terms with its diminished role on the world stage, from colonial empire to a member of the EU.
The United Kingdom (UK) is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland with the world famous cities of London & Manchester, and the geography sweeps from mountainous highlands, to green and pleasant rolling countryside and vibrant cities. The country is jam-packed with two millennia of heritage, making visits of any length of time feel too short.
Climate and Weather of London
The climate of London (UK) can be erratic and unpredictable, but usually summers are warm and winters are cold, with temperatures milder than those on the continent.
In winter, temperatures rarely drop below 32°F (0°C), and in summer, they very seldom reach 90°F (32°C), hovering more in the seventies Fahrenheit (mid twenties Celsius). Thought the wettest months, July and August tend to be the warmest, while January and February are the coldest. Rainfall tends to be distributed throughout the year fairly evenly, though late winter/early spring (February to March) is the driest period.
