Queen Elizabeth II was coronated in London, England on June 2nd, 1953, despite the cloudy and rainy weather. The ceremony was attended by her husband, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and her son, Prince Charles, and his children. The U.K.'s Met Office reported that the cold and rainy weather continued throughout the day, but it appears to have been a sign of good luck, as her son, King Charles III, was coronated in similar conditions.
