Monday is also expected to be warm with clear skies and a high of 27 degrees, with a slight shift towards warmer and windier weather on Tuesday.

However, swimmers at Woolwich Baths were warned of a dangerous blue-ringed octopus in the harbour pool after a young boy picked up the sea creature on Thursday, leading to a precautionary hospital visit.
