Sweltering temperatures are being recorded across Britain, making it the hottest day of the year so far.
Highs of 28.8C (83.8F) at London's Heathrow Airport and 28.5C at Bournemouth were recorded this afternoon - and temperatures are expected to rise further, forecasters say.
Sky News Weather Producer Jo Robinson said: "I wouldn't be surprised to see 31C somewhere across southeast England by the end of the day.
"West London currently looks the most favoured spot.
"England's east coast and parts of the south-east will be a touch cooler tomorrow, whereas Scotland and Ireland will be warmer."

"We've had a busy weekend at Wimbledon, with the hot weather contributing to ailments including dehydration, sunburn and heat exhaustion," Katherine Eaton, regional events manager for St John Ambulance London, said.
"Our volunteers are determined to be the difference by making sure that everyone has access to essential first aid; and we would like everyone who is visiting to make themselves aware of where they can seek help should they begin to feel unwell."
Today's heat follows highs of 27.5C at London's Heathrow airport on Saturday afternoon. It put the previous high of 27.2C, also at Heathrow last month, in the shade.
A number of Wimbledon visitors have been treated for heat-related ailments Sky News Weather Presenter Sarah Pennock warned: "There will be plenty of sunshine across England and Wales - but if you are enjoying the outdoors prepare for high UV levels and a high pollen count."
Pennock said it will remain warm this week in much of England and Wales, although North Sea coastlines will turn cooler from Tuesday with an onshore breeze.
It means the UK is on course to enjoy its longest spell of hot weather since 2006, when temperatures were above 28C (82F) in many areas for around a fortnight.
The average maximum temperature in England at this time of year is 20.9C (69F).
