Parts of Greater London on the other hand are often thought of as separate towns (Croydon, Romford) so if you exclude them it could be smaller than greater Paris. (Those two examples I gave are often still considered to be in Surrey and Essex respectively).
Greater London is London. Croydon is a London borough; it only has a Surrey postal address because the Post Office decided it would be too expensive to change all of the postcodes to London ones.
Greater London has a population of 8.6 million. London's metro area is much larger than Paris' metro area.
London is the largest Cfb city in the world, even though it has 'technically' only been Cfb for 14 of the last 30 years.
The driest summer month must also have less than 30mm precipitation, and I used the driest summer month and wettest winter month, rather than the driest and wettest overall (as some years have driest month in spring and wettest in autumn). A lot of summer months in London get around 20-30mm, though the average is skewed upwards by occasional very thundery/showery months with 90-100mm+ such as August 2004 (average summer rainfall in London is about 45mm per month).
The Cfa year was 2006 (July 22.5c mean), the Dfb year was 1986 (Feb mean -0.5c).
The last Csb year using the strictest definition was 2013 (98.2mm in Dec, 11.6mm in Jun), loosening the definition a bit to include September as a 'summer' month, last year was also Csb (162.4mm in Jan, 10.8mm in Sep). The grass dries up and turns yellow/brown, and the clay soil is as hard as concrete pretty much every summer, it's not always the lush green that people associate with England.
