Today is set to be hottest day of the year so far with high temperatures hitting London, as the Met Office warns Brits to wear SPF.

The forecaster said there will be highs of 25C today and could reach 27C in the south over the weekend.

But not all of the country is so lucky with showers and 'unsettled conditions' more likely in the north and northwest.

Thunder is on the way next week, with rain moving in from the west, the forecaster warned - predicting 'heavy and thundery' showers.

Due to the summer weather over the next few days, the Met Office warned those who will bask in the sunshine to remember to wear sunscreen.

And pollen levels are also due to increase, with medium and high levels expected.
