Warm and cloudy Saturday in Fulham — 28°C with barely any rain

After a string of hot days this week, Saturday brings more of the same warmth to Fulham — just with a thicker blanket of cloud overhead. The Met Office forecast puts the daytime high at 28°C and the overnight low at a mild 18°C, with only a 5% chance of rain. The UV index sits at 7, which counts as high, so sun cream is worth applying even when the sky looks grey — UV penetrates cloud cover more readily than most people expect.

For those heading out to Bishops Park, Fulham Palace Gardens or the riverside walk along the Thames, conditions should be comfortable enough, though the cloud means it won't feel quite as intense as earlier in the week. A light layer for the evening would be sensible given the overnight temperature will ease off noticeably once the sun goes down.

There is no significant rain risk through the day, so outdoor plans — markets, leisure or just a long lunch in a garden — should be fine to go ahead. Keep an eye on the Met Office site for any updates as the day progresses.
