As we see the hottest days of the year so far - Friday could see temperatures of up to 33 degrees in parts of London.
A heat health alert has been issued for parts of England, as the UK gets set for its hottest days of the year so far.
"[It will be] the first hot spell of weather of the year for some parts of the country," said the Met Office's Alex Deakin. "But quite a contrast, it's not going to be hot and sunny everywhere." But temperatures would need to beat 35.6C to break the record for the UK's hottest June day, which was recorded in Southampton in 1976.
A separate level one alert - the "minimum state of vigilance" - has been issued for northern England.
