After yesterday's pleasant warmth, Wednesday brings a more unsettled feel to Fulham. The Met Office is forecasting a cloudy day with a high of 26°C and a low of 19°C overnight — still warm, but with a notable 56% chance of rain and the possibility of a storm developing at some point today.
The UV index sits at 5 (moderate), so sunscreen remains worth applying if you do venture out during any brighter spells, though prolonged sunshine looks unlikely.
For anyone planning to be outdoors this afternoon — whether heading to Bishop's Park, Eel Brook Common, or one of the local street markets — it is worth keeping an eye on the sky and having a layer or umbrella to hand. Showers in August can arrive quickly and with little warning when conditions are this humid.
The bank holiday weekend still lies ahead, and residents will be hoping conditions settle. For the most up-to-date hourly breakdown, the Met Office site is worth bookmarking. Met Office Fulham forecast
