The upcoming week is set to bring drastically colder weather across London as the transitional warm days of early March come to a halt. According to recent forecasts, the pleasant temperatures some may have been enjoying this week will soon descend as winter reasserts its chill.
Today, Sunday, March 9, 2025, temperatures are expected to peak at 17C, providing residents with ample sunshine from morning through evening. Similarly, tomorrow, Monday, March 10, 2025, will see highs of 15C. These milder days, though, are predicted to be fleeting, as forecasts indicate significant drops soon.
Starting Tuesday, March 11, 2025, the weather is set to turn markedly colder. The rain forecasted to clear southwards will bring about not just overcast conditions but also the likelihood of overnight frosts becoming more prevalent. The Met Office spokesperson, adding to the gravity of the situation, noted, “Rain clearing southwards on Tuesday to introduce markedly colder conditions once again, with some sunny spells but also a few showers.”
The week of March 10 will show temperatures consistently hovering around 9C, with particularly harsh lows projected. On Wednesday, March 12, temperatures could plummet to as low as 0C to 1C, according to WXCharts predictions, marking quite the chilling shift from the warmth just experienced.
For March 12, the forecasts have also suggested BBC Weather predicts highs of approximately 9C, with lows around 2C, complemented by sunny intervals and light winds, which might not provide much comfort amid the colder reality.
Despite being spring's approach, Londoners will need to brace themselves for what seems like the stubborn remnants of winter temperatures. The week promises some sunny but chilly days, with intermittent overcast skies and potential for even brief showers throughout the week. All eyes will now be on the forecast as spring approaches and what it might bring.
