The most comfortable seasons in the UK are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). During these periods, the weather is more stable. In spring, some areas showcase beautiful blossoming flowers, while autumn not only brings cool weather but also offers breathtaking landscapes as the leaves change color. Especially, if you want to enjoy a vacation without crowds during academic breaks, it's recommended to avoid major cities in the summer. This is because most schools start their summer vacations in mid-July, and many large music festivals take place during the summer. Accommodation prices in big cities are typically higher in summer, and popular tourist spots are usually crowded.
Spring (March to May): Temperatures typically range from 6-11°C. This period tends to be rainier, but by May, the weather starts to stabilize with warmer temperatures, reaching highs of up to 18°C during the day.
Summer (June to August): The UK mostly enjoys clear skies during this time, with occasional thunderstorms. Temperatures generally range from 13-17℃, but heatwaves can push the mercury above 35°C. The warmest cities in the UK are mostly located in the south, such as London, Brighton, and Bristol.
Autumn (September to November): Some parts of the UK experience a relatively dry and mild autumn, while other areas can be quite humid. This varies depending on the region. Temperatures generally range between 7-18°C and can suddenly drop.
Winter (December to February): Winter temperatures in the UK average between 1-5°C, and roads can even become icy.
