Along the river
Between Tate and St Paul’s
From Tate Modern, Millennium Bridge leads towards St Paul’s. Out on the bridge, there is no building between you and the wind. Check the gusts as well as the rain forecast before heading down to the water.
From the dome to the skyline
St Paul’s dome rises over the rooftops; further east, the towers crowd together. Across the river, the Shard adds another point to the skyline. The Thames runs between them. Choose your own viewpoint in the 3D scene, then check rain, gusts and temperatures before taking the actual walk.
Look up
The City’s towers
The skyline keeps appearing between the office buildings. In the 3D model, you can move closer to the landmarks and look over the roofs. Before the real walk, the hourly forecast is the more practical view.
Another bridge along
Around Tower Bridge
The two towers are easy to spot from a distance. If you stop by the river to enjoy the view, the evening temperature matters more than the afternoon high. Sunset is listed with the daily weather details.
London
One forecast, a large city
A shaded lane and an open bridge may be only a short walk apart, yet wind and sunshine feel different in each. This forecast is centred on the weather location near St Paul’s and describes the surrounding area. It does not measure conditions on every street corner.

Timing is part of the plan
For a walk along the river, check more than the next hour: when is rain expected, how strong could the gusts become, and how cool will the evening be? All displayed times follow London local time. The rain map here shows a model forecast; official warnings are available from the Met Office.
