What to Wear in 50°F (10°C) Weather: Observed on 290 People in London
This page covers 48°F to under 53°F.
Our guide: what to wear at 50°F (10°C)
This is our guide, not a measurement.
At 50°F (10°C), wear a proper jacket: a light-to-medium coat over a long-sleeved top or a thin sweater is the comfortable choice, with long trousers and closed shoes. Mornings and evenings feel colder than the afternoon, so dress in layers you can open or take off. Wind and drizzle make it feel several degrees cooler: a hood or a water-resistant shell helps more than an extra knit. A light scarf is worth carrying if you will stand still outside, for example waiting for a bus. In London that often means damp, breezy days, so a coat that blocks wind matters more than a thick one.
