Summers are generally warm, sometimes hot. London's average July high is 23.5°C (74.3°F). On average each year, London experiences 31 days above 25°C (77.0°F) and 4.2 days above 30.0°C (86.0°F). During the 2003 European heat wave, prolonged heat led to hundreds of heat-related deaths. [155] A previous spell of 15 consecutive days above 32.2°C (90.0°F) in England in 1976 also caused many heat related deaths. [156] A previous temperature of 37.8°C (100.0°F) in August 1911 at the Greenwich station was later disregarded as non-standard. [157] Droughts can also, occasionally, be a problem, especially in summer, most recently in summer 2018, and with much drier than average conditions prevailing from May to December. [158] However, the most consecutive days without rain was 73 days in the spring of 1893. [159]

Of course until relatively recent times the name London referred only to the City of London with even Westminster remaining a separate entity. But when the County of London was created in 1888, the name often came to be rather loosely used for this much larger area, which was also sometimes referred to as Greater London from about this date. However, in 1965 Greater London was newly defined as a much enlarged area.
