London was the hottest part of the country, with temperatures reaching a maximum of 20.4C (68.7F) at St James's Park at 1pm, according to the Met Office.

This made the capital hotter than Madrid (17C/62.5F), the Balearic Islands (18C/64.5F) and the French Riviera (16C-17C/61F-62.5F), weather forecaster MeteoGroup said.

However the Met Office said there was a pollution warning level ten, the highest on their scale.

A level this high means adults and children with lung problems, adults with heart problems, and older people, should avoid strenuous physical activity, according to the Met Office.

People with asthma may find they need to use their reliever inhaler more often, according to their advice.

People are advised to reduce physical exertion, particularly outdoors, especially if you experience symptoms such as cough or sore throat.

Other parts of the south east of England will see the best of the conditions today, reaching between 17C (62.5F) and 19C (66.2F), meaning plenty of time in the sun for some on the first day of British Summer Time (BST).

The balmy weather will remain for much of the week ahead, according to Met Office meteorologist Eleanor Crompton.

"It will be warm but temperatures may be a down a couple of degrees. We'll see more cloud and hazy sunshine around with temperatures in the late teens from Monday to Wednesday."

Ms Crompton added: "There is a chance of some thundery showers coming up in western and central areas tonight, spreading to the north. It's the usual case of warm weather followed by the increased risk of showers."

Britain is due to be warmer than mainland Spain and Ibiza next week as temperatures here reach 21C (70F), forecasters said.

London will hit 20C (68F) tomorrow and 21C (70F) on Monday, making it hotter than Madrid (17C), the Balearic Islands (18C) and the French Riviera (16C-17C), Meteogroup said.

It means plenty of time in the sun as the clocks go forward an hour for the start of British Summer Time (BST) overnight tonight.

Much of the UK will bask in warm weather tomorrow and for much of the week ahead as hot air from the continent spreads north, according to senior forecaster Rachel Vince.

She said: "We are in for a bit of a mild spell over the next few days.

"It will be nice for most of the country."

However, some parts of the UK will feel less of the balmy spring weather into the week ahead Eastern Scotland and the north east of England will see some misty spells, with Edinburgh set to only reach 12C (53F) on Monday.

But it will be warmer in Belfast (14C/57F) and Cardiff (17C/62F).

And some western parts could see thundery showers on Monday caused by the warm air.

The weather is being driven by hot air currently over the Low Countries, Ms Vince said. Belgium and the Netherlands are forecast to have temperatures in the mid-20s Celsius on Monday.

Britain will be warmer than Ibiza, Corfu and Cyprus next week as temperatures reach 21C, forecasters say.

Parts of Britain, including London, are expected to hit 20Ctoday and 21C on Monday, making it hotter than much of the Mediterranean.

It means plenty of time in the sun as the clocks go forward an hour for the start of British Summer Time (BST) overnight tonight.

Much of the UK will enjoy warm weather tomorrow and for the week ahead as hot air from the continent spreads north.

Sky's weather producer JoannaRobinson said: "South-easterly winds will continue to draw in warm air from the near continent over the next few days.

"Temperatures will widely reach 14 to 18C across the UK and Ireland, with 21C possible across southeast England.

"There'll be plenty of hazy sunshine, but there'll be an increasing risk of heavy, sometimes thundery, showers next week. Wales, western England, Northern Ireland and the Republic look most at risk of those.

"Not everywhere will get the fine, warm weather. Eastern Scotland and northeast England will be murky and cool, typically from Lincolnshire northwards.

"Onshore winds over a cool North Sea will bring sea fog and damp conditions inland at times.

"Temperatures will be much lower along the coast and in the fog, peaking at just 7 or 8C."
