Traveller notes on York in June
Other months in York
York's forum describes the city's weather as much like the rest of the UK in August — changeable, with rain that can start suddenly mid-sunny-day or clear just as suddenly mid-downpour. Regulars note the Yorkshire coast runs noticeably cooler than inland York if there's a north-easterly breeze off the sea, and that August is peak season so hotels and parking book up fast.
