Tuesday is shaping up to be a genuinely hot day in Fulham, with the Met Office forecasting a high of 36°C, a low of 25°C overnight, and only a 5% chance of rain. UV index is forecast at 8 — classed as very high — so sun protection will be important for anyone spending time outdoors.
Monday looks rather different: light rain showers are expected with a high of 28°C and a 54% chance of rain, so it is worth getting errands done today if you can.
For Tuesday, the NHS recommends keeping out of the sun between 11am and 3pm, staying well hydrated, and checking on elderly neighbours or those with health conditions who may struggle in extreme heat. Residents with young children or pets should take particular care.
Bishop's Park and the Thames Path will likely be busy; early mornings are the best time for outdoor exercise before temperatures peak in the afternoon. Local pharmacies stock sun cream, cooling sprays and oral rehydration products if supplies at home are running low.
