Grab your umbrella and waterproof jacket—London’s about to get WET.
The week ahead (October 20-26, 2025) brings classic British autumn weather to the capital with *rain on 5 out of 7 days, temperatures hovering between *12-16°C (54-61°F) during the day and dropping to 5-12°C (41-54°F) overnight, plus strong winds reaching 21 mph that’ll turn your umbrella inside out if you’re not careful. Monday October 20 kicks things off with heavy rain and 59°F (15°C) temperatures, followed by Tuesday’s lighter sprinkles and brief respite before *Thursday October 23 delivers the week’s worst weather—rain, wind, and that distinctive British autumn misery where you question every life choice that brought you to this damp island. The Met Office confirms what every Londoner already knows: October is London’s *wettest month with average rainfall of 71mm across 15 rainy days, meaning this week’s precipitation fits the seasonal pattern of “bring layers, expect grey skies, embrace the cozy pub culture.”
But here’s what matters for YOUR week: When should you plan outdoor activities? (Tuesday afternoon and Friday look least terrible). What should you actually wear? (Layers! Thermal base, sweater, waterproof coat—we’ll break it down). Will this affect your commute? (TfL already warning about potential delays). Can you still enjoy London? (Absolutely—this city doesn’t stop for rain, and museums, markets, and covered attractions thrive in autumn weather). This isn’t just another weather forecast regurgitating Met Office data—this is your strategic planning guide for navigating London’s autumn week, from choosing the right day for that Hampton Court visit to knowing which parks stay beautiful in rain versus those that turn into muddy disasters.
Day-by-Day London Weather Breakdown: October 20-26, 2025
Monday, October 20: Heavy Rain Day
- Temperature: High 15°C (59°F), Low 12°C (54°F)
- Conditions: Rain, overcast skies all day
- Wind: 18 mph from the south
- Rainfall: 0.33″ (8.4mm) – significant precipitation
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:33am / 5:56pm
What This Means:
Monday is a write-off for outdoor plans. The heavy rain starts early and persists throughout the day, making any extended outdoor activities miserable. Commuters should expect:
- Slower traffic (rain always causes London gridlock)
- Crowded Tube platforms (everyone avoiding surface transport)
- Wet, slippery pavements
- Umbrella carnage (wind + rain = broken brollies across Zone 1)
Best Monday Activities:
✅ Museums: British Museum, V&A, Science Museum all indoors
✅ Covered markets: Covent Garden, Borough Market, Leadenhall
✅ Shopping: Oxford Street, Westfield malls, Bond Street boutiques
✅ Cinema: Perfect rainy day for catching up on films
✅ Cozy pubs: Embrace British weather with proper pub lunch
❌ Parks, outdoor walking tours, Thames walks = BAD IDEAS
Tuesday, October 21: Improvement Day
- Temperature: High 16°C (62°F), Low 13°C (51°F)
- Conditions: Sprinkles early, cloudy afternoon
- Wind: 15 mph – moderate
- Rainfall: 0.06″ (1.5mm) – light/occasional
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:35am / 5:54pm
What This Means:
Tuesday offers the week’s best window for outdoor activities! The heavy Monday rain clears, leaving cloudy skies with occasional light drizzle that won’t ruin your day. Temperatures reach the week’s warmest at 16°C—practically balmy by London autumn standards.
Tuesday Opportunities:
✅ Richmond Park: Autumn foliage still beautiful despite clouds
✅ Greenwich: Park + maritime attractions + market combo
✅ Walking tours: Doable with light jacket, maybe small umbrella
✅ Outdoor markets: Columbia Road Flower Market (Sundays only, but other markets work)
✅ Thames River walks: South Bank bearable with occasional sprinkles
Strategic Planning:
Book that outdoor activity you’ve been wanting—Tuesday afternoon (1-4pm) looks decent before evening darkness (sunset 5:54pm). Morning might be damp from overnight rain, but by midday you’re golden.
Wednesday, October 22: Partly Cloudy Interlude
- Temperature: High 15°C (60°F), Low 12°C (47°F)
- Conditions: Sprinkles late afternoon, mostly cloudy
- Wind: 5 mph – calm!
- Rainfall: 0.07″ (1.8mm) – minimal
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:36am / 5:52pm
What This Means:
Wednesday continues Tuesday’s relative pleasantness with calm winds (finally!) and mostly dry conditions until late afternoon sprinkles. The low wind speed makes this ideal for activities where wind ruins the experience—outdoor dining, photography, cycling.
Wednesday Winners:
✅ Cycling: Santander bikes + Regent’s Canal towpath
✅ Photography: Cloudy skies create soft light (photographers love overcast!)
✅ Outdoor dining: Brave lunch on heated terraces before evening rain
✅ Kensington Gardens: Manageable walking weather
✅ Tower Bridge/London Bridge area: Sightseeing without wind battering
Evening Plans:
Rain arrives late afternoon/evening, so schedule indoor activities after 5pm: theater (West End shows), restaurants, pubs, or that concert you booked months ago.
Thursday, October 23: THE WORST DAY
- Temperature: High 16°C (62°F), Low 12°C (49°F)
- Conditions: Rain, cloudy, miserable
- Wind: 19 mph – strong and unpleasant
- Rainfall: 0.33″ (8.4mm) – heavy again
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:38am / 5:50pm
- Feels Like: 8°C (47°F) due to wind chill
What This Means:
Thursday is stay-indoors-if-possible day. The combination of rain + strong wind creates that uniquely British misery where your umbrella becomes a useless inside-out sail and rain drives horizontally into your face. The “feels like” temperature of 8°C (47°F) means you’ll be genuinely cold despite the thermometer reading 16°C.
Thursday Survival Strategy:
✅ Remote work from home if possible
✅ Museum marathon: Natural History → V&A → Science Museum all connected
✅ Shopping centers: Westfield, Oxford Street covered sections
✅ Cinema: Multiplex day—catch that film you missed
✅ Spa day: Treat yourself to indoor pampering
✅ Food halls: Borough Market, Time Out Market (mostly covered)
❌ Anything outdoors = cancel or postpone
Commuter Warning:
Thursday morning and evening commutes will be nightmares. Expect:
- TfL delays (rain always causes signal problems)
- Packed Tube carriages (everyone avoiding surface transport)
- Traffic jams (accidents, cautious driving, flooding)
- Late buses (roadworks + rain = chaos)
- Wet, miserable humans everywhere
Leave home 15-20 minutes earlier than normal.
Friday, October 24: Slight Improvement
- Temperature: High 14°C (56°F), Low 12°C (48°F)
- Conditions: Sprinkles late, mostly cloudy
- Wind: 21 mph – very windy!
- Rainfall: 0.03″ (0.8mm) – minimal
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:40am / 5:48pm
- Feels Like: 10°C (50°F)
What This Means:
Friday’s wind is the story—21 mph gusts make this the week’s windiest day despite less rain. The “feels like” temperature of 10°C means you’ll need proper layers even though the thermometer says 14°C. Rain holds off mostly, but wind makes outdoor comfort questionable.
Friday Activities:
✅ Indoor attractions still best bet
✅ Covered street markets: Camden, Borough
✅ West End matinee: Afternoon theater before evening out
✅ Gallery hopping: National Gallery, Tate Modern, Tate Britain
✅ Restaurant reservations: Friday night dining (book ahead!)
⚠ Parks possible but windy and uncomfortable
Weekend Preview:
Friday evening marks transition into weekend—plan Friday night entertainment (bars, clubs, restaurants) knowing Saturday looks rough.
Saturday, October 25: Weekend Dampener
- Temperature: High 13°C (53°F), Low 8°C (42°F)
- Conditions: Sprinkles, cloudy
- Wind: 10 mph – moderate
- Rainfall: 0.16″ (4mm) – noticeable
- Sunrise/Sunset: 7:42am / 5:46pm
What This Means:
Saturday brings cooler temperatures (8°C overnight—first time in single digits!) and persistent sprinkles throughout the day. Not heavy rain, but that annoying constant drizzle that soaks through clothing and ruins hair.
Saturday Salvage Plan:
✅ Brunch culture: London’s weekend brunch scene thrives indoors
✅ Markets: Columbia Road Flowers (morning), Broadway Market, Greenwich
✅ Premier League: Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham matches = pub atmosphere
✅ Shopping: Weekend crowds but covered areas work
✅ Afternoon tea: Perfect cozy Saturday activity
✅ Evening theater: Saturday night West End shows
Reality Check:
Lots of Londoners will be doing indoor activities Saturday—expect crowds at museums, shopping centers, restaurants, pubs showing football. Book restaurant reservations in advance or arrive off-peak (3-5pm) to avoid waits.
Sunday, October 26: Clocks Change!
- Temperature: High 13°C (52°F), Low 7°C (38°F)
- Conditions: Increasing cloudiness, mostly dry
- Wind: 11 mph – moderate
- Rainfall: 0.00″ – DRY!
- Sunrise/Sunset: 6:43am / 4:44pm ⚠ CLOCKS GO BACK
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT:
Sunday night (October 26), clocks move back one hour as British Summer Time ends and we enter Greenwich Mean Time. At 2:00am Sunday, clocks “fall back” to 1:00am, giving you an extra hour of sleep (or partying, depending on your Saturday night choices).
What This Means:
- Sunrise earlier: 6:43am instead of 7:43am
- Sunset much earlier: 4:44pm instead of 5:44pm
- Darkness by 5pm from now through February
- Extra hour Sunday morning (lie-in opportunity!)
- Serious adjustment to winter darkness
Sunday Activities:
✅ Sunday roast: Traditional pub lunch (book ahead!)
✅ Columbia Road Market: Morning flower market tradition
✅ Park walks: DRY weather finally! Richmond, Hyde, Greenwich
✅ Football: Sunday Premier League fixtures
✅ Museums: Crowds lighter Sunday afternoons
✅ Evening: Prepare for Monday work week
Seasonal Adjustment:
The clock change marks psychological shift into winter. Darkness at 4:44pm means evening activities effectively start earlier—plan accordingly for commutes, dinner reservations, and general life timing.
What to Wear: London Autumn Layering Strategy
The Essential Outfit Formula:
Layer 1: Base Layer (Next to Skin)
- Thermal long-sleeve top (Uniqlo Heattech, M&S, Decathlon)
- Regular underwear
- Warm socks (wool blend, not cotton—cotton gets cold when wet)
Layer 2: Mid Layer (Insulation)
- Sweater or fleece (merino wool ideal but any works)
- Long pants/jeans (not shorts—you’re not invincible)
- Optional: Vest/gilet for core warmth
Layer 3: Outer Layer (Weather Protection)
- CRITICAL: Waterproof jacket with hood
- Must be actually waterproof (not water-resistant—there’s a difference)
- Brands: North Face, Columbia, Patagonia, or budget options from Decathlon/Primark
Accessories (Non-Negotiable):
- Compact umbrella: Wind-resistant, fits in bag
- Gloves: Temperatures drop to 5-8°C some mornings
- Scarf: Wool or fleece for neck warmth
- Waterproof shoes: Leather boots or treated sneakers (NOT canvas)
- Backpack: Keep hands free for umbrella
Pro Tips:
✅ Dress for “feels like” temp, not actual temp (wind chill matters!)
✅ Waterproof jacket over sweater is warmer than thick coat alone
✅ Carry extra layer in bag—indoor heating means you’ll want to shed sweater
✅ Avoid cotton if possible—wool/synthetics dry faster and stay warm when damp
❌ Don’t wear: flip-flops, canvas shoes, cotton hoodies (all terrible in rain)
How Weather Affects Your London Plans
Transport Implications:
London Underground (Tube):
- Rain = overcrowding (everyone avoids buses)
- Wet floors = slipping hazards at stations
- Humid, steamy conditions in carriages
- Expect minor delays on exposed sections (District, Metropolitan)
Buses:
- Slower journey times (traffic increases 20-30% in rain)
- Standing room only (nobody wants to walk)
- Windows fog up instantly
- Wet floors, wet seats, wet humans everywhere
Walking:
- Budget extra time (slow pace in rain, crowds sheltering)
- Pavements slippery when wet
- Puddles at every kerb
- Umbrella navigation requires spatial awareness
Cycling:
- Santander bikes still operate in rain
- Road surfaces slippery
- Reduced visibility for drivers
- You WILL get wet regardless of gear
Taxis/Ubers:
- Surge pricing kicks in during rain
- Longer wait times (high demand)
- Traffic delays increase journey times
- Everyone wants rideshare during Thursday’s heavy rain
Strategy:
Use Tube for speed despite crowds, or embrace buses for views if time isn’t critical. Walking bearable Tuesday-Wednesday-Friday but avoid Thursday completely.

Tuesday and Wednesday offer the best conditions for outdoor activities with only light sprinkles. London October averages 15 rainy days monthly with 71mm total rainfall, so this week’s pattern fits typical autumn weather.
What’s the warmest day this week in London?
Tuesday, October 21 reaches the week’s highest temperature at 16°C (62°F) with partly cloudy skies and only light sprinkles—making it the best day for outdoor activities, park visits, or walking tours. Monday and Thursday also hit 16°C but feature heavy rain and wind making them feel much colder. The week’s coldest day is Sunday, October 26 with overnight lows of 7°C (38°F) and daytime highs only reaching 13°C (52°F).
What should I pack for London in late October?
Essential October packing includes: waterproof jacket with hood (non-negotiable), compact wind-resistant umbrella, warm sweater or fleece, thermal base layers, waterproof boots or treated leather shoes, gloves and scarf (mornings reach 5-8°C), jeans or warm pants, and layers you can add/remove as indoor heating varies. Avoid cotton clothes (stay cold when wet) and opt for wool or synthetic materials. Temperatures range 12-16°C daytime and 5-12°C overnight with frequent rain and wind requiring proper weather protection.
Is London weather bad in October 2025?
October is London’s wettest month with average 71mm rainfall across 15 rainy days, so yes—expect frequent rain, grey skies, and temperatures 12-16°C (54-61°F) requiring layers and waterproofing. However, “bad” is subjective: museums, theaters, restaurants, and covered attractions thrive in autumn, and London doesn’t shut down for rain. Proper clothing and flexible planning enable enjoyable visits despite weather. Avoid October if sunshine and warmth are priorities—visit May-September instead. But if you embrace cozy pub culture, museum marathons, and autumn atmosphere, October offers genuine London character minus summer tourist crowds.
What time does it get dark in London this week?
Sunset times decrease rapidly throughout the week: Monday (5:56pm), Tuesday (5:54pm), Wednesday (5:52pm), Thursday (5:50pm), Friday (5:48pm), Saturday (5:46pm), and *Sunday (4:44pm after clocks change). The *October 26 clock change (British Summer Time ending) causes sunset to shift from approximately 5:45pm to 4:45pm instantly—a dramatic hour earlier affecting evening activities, commutes, and general mood. By Sunday, darkness falls before 5pm and will continue getting earlier through December 21’s winter solstice. Plan indoor activities or well-lit outdoor options for evenings.
Should I cancel outdoor plans due to London weather?
Don’t cancel—adapt! Tuesday and Wednesday offer decent weather windows for parks, walking tours, and outdoor activities with only light rain. Thursday’s heavy rain warrants rescheduling outdoor plans to indoor alternatives. Sunday’s dry forecast makes it excellent for Richmond Park, Greenwich, or Thames walks. London locals live with rain constantly—proper waterproofing enables outdoor exploration regardless of drizzle. However, heavy rain + strong wind (Monday, Thursday) genuinely miserable—prioritize museums, shopping, covered markets those days.
What are the wind speeds in London this week?
Wind varies significantly daily: moderate 5-11 mph (Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday), strong 15-19 mph (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday), and very strong *21 mph Friday—the week’s windiest day despite less rain. Strong winds make temperatures feel 3-5°C colder (wind chill effect), turn umbrellas inside out, make outdoor dining unpleasant, and cause minor transport delays. The worst combination is *Thursday’s 19 mph wind + heavy rain creating horizontal rain and general misery. Calm Wednesday (5 mph wind) offers best outdoor comfort despite clouds.
When do the clocks change in London October 2025?
Clocks “fall back” one hour at 2:00am Sunday, October 26, 2025 as British Summer Time ends and Greenwich Mean Time begins. Set clocks back from 2:00am to 1:00am Saturday night, gaining an extra hour. Smartphones and computers adjust automatically. Result: sunrise shifts from 7:42am to 6:43am (earlier morning light) but sunset moves from 5:46pm to 4:44pm (much earlier evening darkness). This marks psychological transition into winter with darkness by 5pm continuing through February. Adjust sleep schedule, commute timing, and evening plans accordingly.
Is October 2025 colder than normal in London?
October 2025 temperatures (12-16°C / 54-61°F) align with normal seasonal averages—neither unusually warm nor cold. Historical October London weather features 10-15°C daytime temperatures with 8°C overnight lows. This week’s 7°C Sunday overnight low hits typical October minimum range. Rainfall (5 days of 7) matches October’s wettest-month status. No extreme weather patterns—just classic British autumn: cool, wet, variable. If you’ve experienced London October before, this week feels familiar. First-time visitors often surprised by how much rain occurs and how cool 15°C feels with wind.
What’s the UV index and sun protection needed?
UV index remains Low (0-2) throughout the week despite occasional sunny intervals. Low UV means minimal sunburn risk—sunscreen typically unnecessary for normal daily activities though fair-skinned individuals might apply SPF 15-30 for extended outdoor exposure. The combination of autumn sun angle, frequent cloud cover, and short daylight hours (sunset before 6pm) limits UV radiation significantly. However, eye protection still advisable during bright intervals, and moisturizer with SPF provides skin protection without dedicated sunscreen application.
Can I see autumn foliage in London this week?
Yes! Late October is peak autumn foliage season in London with trees displaying spectacular reds, oranges, and yellows despite rain. Best locations for autumn colors:
- Richmond Park: Deer + turning leaves = iconic London autumn
- Kew Gardens: Botanical diversity creates colorful displays
- Greenwich Park: Hillside views + autumn trees
- Hampstead Heath: Wild parkland, dramatic colors
- Regent’s Park: Rose gardens + tree-lined paths
Rain actually enhances leaf colors (wet leaves appear more vibrant) and cloudy skies provide soft photography lighting. Tuesday, Wednesday, or Sunday (dry days) offer best foliage viewing opportunities. Bring waterproof shoes as fallen leaves + rain = muddy paths.
How accurate are London weather forecasts?
London weather forecasts prove reasonably accurate 3-5 days ahead (Monday-Wednesday predictions reliable) but less certain beyond that (Friday-Sunday could change). The UK’s maritime climate creates unpredictable weather where forecasts showing rain might deliver only drizzle, or predicted dry days bring unexpected showers. Use forecasts for general planning but check updated predictions daily. Met Office (official UK forecaster) provides most accurate local predictions. Multiple weather apps often show different forecasts for same day—trust Met Office over international services.
