We Brits love to complain about the weather. When we’re hit by “adverse” weather conditions, such as a few flakes of snow, the country panics and the transport system shuts down (especially in the south east!). We'll keep you updated on storms, floods, heat waves and of course snow issues. The weather in the UK can vary greatly depending on the time of year and the region. Generally, the UK has a temperate maritime climate, which means it tends to be mild with moderate rainfall throughout the year. In the winter months (December to February), temperatures can range from near freezing to around 10°C (50°F) on average, with occasional snowfall in some parts, particularly in Scotland and northern England. During the summer months (June to August), temperatures typically range from around 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F) on average, although heatwaves can occasionally push temperatures higher. Rainfall is spread relatively evenly throughout the year, but some regions, particularly in western parts of the UK, tend to be wetter than others.
