Londoners can expect wet weather starting Wednesday, with forecasters predicting between 10 and 20mm of rain and temperatures dropping to around 15°C. This change follows a mild autumn start; however, cooler conditions are expected through the weekend, potentially leading to turbulent weather by Christmas due to an El Niño event developing in the Pacific. Meteorologists warn this could increase the risk of heavy downpours and flooding, alongside periods of unusually warm weather.
