Top 9 in Top 10 misunderstandings about England.
Britain is famous for its gray weather and rainy days. So most people say that London, as his capital, is no different! Now, nobody says the UK is a warm country. Winters in Scotland and northern England can be very harsh, and summers are often dominated by cloudy days. But London is in the south, and the temperature is there much warmer. The London average was a bit cooler than New York, but remained above the freezing level during most of the winter months. And contrary to popular belief, London is no where almost raining as you imagine. Rainfall averages about 23 inches of precipitation per year, almost half compared to New York! Precipitation is also low throughout the winter: very rare snow in London, in England, if the snow falls on Christmas Day in the capital, it is called "White Christmas ". We're not saying you should just pack a T-shirt and shorts for your London visit, but also won't be dull and humid as you think. In summer, you can even see a blue sky!
