What is the weather like in East Ham today?
The live forecast above gives the immediate picture for East Ham, an area that often sees slightly cooler temperatures than central London due to its eastern location and open green spaces.

Winds are generally light to moderate, with the estuary breeze picking up in the afternoon.
How does East Ham’s location affect its weather?
East Ham sits east of the City of London, close to the River Thames and the Royal Docks. This positioning means it can be a degree or two cooler than areas like Westminster, with occasional fog or low cloud rolling in from the estuary during autumn and winter. The surrounding parks – including Central Park and Plashet Park – can create localised microclimates, but the broad pattern follows the BBC weather London outlook.
