Warm and mostly cloudy in Chiswick today — fine spell holds at 28°C
15 August 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
After the extraordinary heat of earlier this week, Friday brings a slightly gentler feel to Chiswick — though it remains a warm late-summer day with a high of 28°C and an overnight low of 19°C.
Cloud will be the dominant feature, but the Met Office notes a fine spell is expected to push through during the day. The chance of rain sits at just 10%, so there is little reason to change plans for anything outdoors. UV index is 6 — moderate to high — so sun cream is still worth applying during any sunny spells, especially for children. Met Office forecast for Chiswick shows fine conditions continuing into the weekend.
For anyone heading to Chiswick's green spaces — the riverside along Strand-on-the-Green, Duke's Meadows or Gunnersbury Park — it should be a comfortable afternoon rather than the intense heat residents endured earlier this week. The fine spell is set to hold through Monday, so the weekend looks pleasant.
