How's the weather been?
 

We leave for London in a week and are about to start the packing process. How's the weather been there lately? Any packing suggestions? I'm getting so excited!
Thanks!

It takes a brave one to forecast a week ahead in London this time of year!

However, this week has been fantastic, warm and sunny every day and towards the end of the week we've had temperatures up in the high 70s.

That's not to say it will last but we're forecast around 70F for most of next week.

Layers are the key and carry an umbrella just in case of unexpected showers. Try www.weather.com for a 10 day forecast or www.bbc.co.uk/weather for a more local 5 day forecast.

Sun splitting the trees all week. But in London rain is never far away bring a brolly.

It has rained for 3 straight weeks in NJ. Can't possibly be worse in London.

The last 3 days have been the hottest this year - a freaky 90 degrees F yesterday. But the storm clouds have rolled in, and it's predicted to be a good deal cooler over the next week. Reports say it should hover around 70 degrees, but with occasional rain.

As always, suggest you bring layers, but I doubt it'll get much colder than 60 degrees. A thin showerproof jacket should be plenty warm enough should it be on the cooler side.
