The warmest day so far this year saw sun-seekers flocking to Battersea Park yesterday.

The borough basked in temperatures of 20C, double the normal peak for this time of year.

Beatrice Plathner, of Clapham, is pictured spending the afternoon soaking rays with a book.

However, South London and Surrey awoke to grey clouds this morning, with showery spells predicted for the weekend.

It is predicted temperatures will struggle to reach 12C tomorrow.
