Leeds Weather

Leeds Weather - Changeable British climate
Leeds weather statistics have quite a lot in common with Birmingham and Manchester: a typically varied British climate with the constant chance of overcast weather and light rain. However, although the weather in Leeds can clearly be dull, the changeable nature of Leeds weather usually ensures a little of everything over a weekend, including sunshine. Average sunshine hours in Leeds are better than most people think: around 5 hours a day from spring to late summer. June is often the sunniest month in Leeds. The city’s landlocked position means Leeds weather is generally a little warmer than Cardiff and the Scotland city break destination of Edinburgh. A weather chart for Leeds shows average summer temperatures around 20º.

Leeds Weather - Pleasant summer mix
Leeds summer weather differs little from UK city break destinations like Manchester and Birmingham. Leeds weather is undoubtedly at its best from May to September. The summer months of June, July and August all usually see plenty of sunny days in the 20ºs, and occasional periods of warm settled weather ideal for cricket at Headingley. A lively atmosphere and plenty of summer pub nightlife makes the summer a good time to visit Leeds. But of course, summer weather in Leeds is just as variable as the rest of the country. When choosing when to go to Leeds, consider spring and autumn, when temperatures are fine for sightseeing and the surrounding countryside is delightful.

Leeds Weather - Winter nightlife
Leeds city breaks in winter experience a climate similar to the rest of central and north England. Winter temperatures rarely climb much more than 10º but seldom drop towards zero. Bring a good warm coat and enjoy terrific Leeds nightlife that remains just as busy in the winter months. Leeds rainfall is spread evenly throughout the year. Spring tends to be a little drier than the autumn. Snow in Leeds is rare but much more common in the surrounding mountains.
