A cooler, cloudier Sunday in Richmond with a high of 25°C
29 June 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
After the recent spell of intense heat, Sunday brings a more comfortable feel to Richmond. The Met Office is forecasting cloudy skies throughout the day, with temperatures reaching a high of 25°C and dropping to around 14°C overnight — a notable step down from the mid-30s the borough has seen in recent days.
The chance of rain is low at just 8%, so while it may feel grey, umbrellas are unlikely to be needed. The UV index is still at 6, which sits in the moderate-to-high range, so sunscreen remains worth applying if you're spending time outdoors — particularly in open spaces like Richmond Park or along the river.
For anyone who has been finding the heat difficult, today's conditions will feel more manageable for errands, cycling or a walk. The cooler air should make the parks and riverside paths pleasantly busy without the intensity of recent weekends.
