Fine spell steps up to 28°C in Chiswick today — and holds all week

After a settled stretch that brought 25°C earlier in the week, Chiswick's fine spell is notching up a gear today, Friday 8 August, with the Met Office forecasting a high of 28°C. The low tonight should stay at a comfortable 19°C, and the chance of rain is just 5 per cent — barely worth a thought. The UV index reaches 7, which is in the high range, so sunscreen is worth applying if you're spending time outside during the middle of the day. The Met Office forecast shows the fine conditions holding not just through the weekend but for a week or more beyond.
It's a good day for Chiswick's green spaces — Turnham Green, Duke's Meadows and the riverside paths will all be in good shape. Outdoor tables at the area's cafés and pubs should be well used this evening. If you're planning a longer trip out of town over the coming days, the settled forecast looks promising, though it is always worth a quick check before you travel as the detail can shift.
