What will the weather be like in Covent Garden today?

Based on the live forecast above, expect conditions typical of the central London area. The West End and Seven Dials area can feel a degree or two warmer than the official reading due to the urban heat island effect. Breezes from the Thames funnel down the Strand, so a light jacket may be needed even on milder days. For a different regional outlook, see our Bristol Weather page.

How does Covent Garden compare with nearby areas?

Covent Garden sits inland from the Thames but is sheltered by surrounding buildings. It can be slightly cooler than Soho but often less windy than the riverside Embankment. If you’re planning ahead, our 10 Day Weather Forecast UK provides a broader view for the capital.
