Averages over 30 years, not a forecast.

  • Normals: ECCC’s normals for London, 1991–2020, chosen as the nearest location with a full temperature record.
  • Other locations: a location missing months of precipitation or snow is filled from the nearest that has them all, never mixed month by month.
  • Comparisons: Canadian towns and neighbourhoods of at least 2,500, each placed by its nearest location (city totals and reserves excluded).
  • Not on this page: a sunshine figure (ECCC published none for 1991–2020) and any lapse-rate correction for height, as the town has no elevation here.
