A hot, cloudy Monday in Fulham — high of 33°C
6 July 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
Today is shaping up to be the warmest day of the run so far, with the Met Office forecasting a high of 33°C for Fulham — four degrees above Sunday's peak. Cloud cover will keep direct sunshine limited, but that won't do much to ease the heat: temperatures are unlikely to dip below 19°C even overnight, making it a sticky evening as well as a sweltering afternoon.
The UV index sits at 9 — classed as "very high" — so even on an overcast day, sun protection is still recommended if you're spending time outside. The rain risk is negligible at just 5%, so there's no need to carry an umbrella.
Anyone planning to use Bishops Park, South Park or the river path along the Embankment today should aim to go early or after 6pm, when the worst of the heat has passed. The local libraries at Fulham and Parsons Green are air-conditioned and open throughout the day if you need somewhere cooler. Keep an eye on elderly neighbours who may be struggling in the heat — the NHS recommends checking in on vulnerable residents during prolonged warm spells. Met Office forecast
