Another scorching day in Fulham — high of 35°C expected

Thursday looks set to be the hottest day of the current spell for Fulham, with the Met Office forecasting a peak of 35°C and a low of 23°C overnight. Skies will be partly cloudy, which may take the edge off direct sun but will do little to reduce the humidity. Rain is essentially off the table, with just a 5% chance, and the UV index reaches 8 — firmly in the "very high" band.
Anyone spending time outdoors should apply high-factor sunscreen, reapply regularly, and try to keep out of direct sun between 11am and 3pm. Children, the elderly and those with underlying health conditions are particularly vulnerable in prolonged heat of this intensity.
Bishop's Park and South Park are both lovely options for a shaded walk early in the morning or after 5pm, when temperatures begin to ease slightly. Fulham's indoor spaces — libraries, cafés and the leisure centre — offer air-conditioned relief if it all gets a bit much.
Fulham Pools on Normand Road is likely to be busy; arriving early or booking ahead where possible is advisable. Stay well hydrated throughout the day.
