While it is impossible to predict the weather for the entire fortnight of Wimbledon (this is London weather we are discussing, of course), we at least have an idea if there is going to be a delay in the tournament beginning. Rain is likely at some point, and there are only two courts that have roofs, but tennis fans should see a hot start to the grass-court major.
Literally.
The tournament gets underway on Monday, June 30, and the forecast is likely to have no rain, but lots of heat. This could be more detrimental than precipitation to players. Players can take breaks from the rain. They cannot take breaks from the oppressive heat.
Weather for the first part of Wimbledon 2025 is hot and dry
According to what Mike Silverstone, the Met Office’s deputy chief meteorologist, told i Paper, temperatures are expected to reach nearly 88 degrees Fahrenheit (31 degrees Celsius) on Monday. That might not seem too bad if one is taking a stroll through a park, but if one is playing a high-intensity cardiovascular sport, it can be awful.
On Tuesday, July 1 (Happy Canada Day, Felix Auger-Aliassime and others!), it will be worse. Temps are expected to reach 34 degrees Celsius (which equates to 93 degrees Fahrenheit), while there is only a five percent chance of rain. At least, it won't be humid, not that that matters to a player running from one side of the court to the other.
On the third day of Wimbledon, the temps should only get to 25 degrees Celsius with a 20 percent chance of rain. That will feel like 77 degrees to any American players, so that is far more manageable. Not just for Americans, but for everyone.
The fourth day looks like the most promising so far. The temperatures will only get to 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius), but the clouds will be more hit and miss. As long as there is no sudden rain, it should be a beautiful day for spectators and players. In other words, if you have tickets to Wimbledon 2025, go have fun.
