This weekend, London is set to experience a high pollen count, which may cause discomfort for those who suffer from hayfever. Despite this, most Londoners are eager to enjoy the warm and sunny weather by slathering on some sun cream and heading to their favorite beer gardens.
According to the Met Office, the temperatures in London will reach up to 25°C today and continue to hover around 23°C on Saturday and Sunday. The weather is expected to remain dry throughout the weekend, with the exception of some early morning showers on Saturday and a brief spell in the afternoon. However, along with the pleasant weather comes a very high pollen count, which is expected to last for the next few days and into the beginning of next week.
The Met Office's pollen forecast warns that the warm and dry weather will cause an increase in grass pollen, as well as other allergens such as nettle, dock, and plantain. So for those who suffer from hayfever, it's best to have tissues handy. In addition, the forecast mentions the presence of spores like Alternaria and Cladosporium in warm weather, and Leptosphaeria after rain.
Looking at the full forecast for the weekend, London can expect mostly good weather with some early morning mist that will quickly disperse to make way for warm and sunny spells. However, there may be some cloudiness later on, particularly in western parts, and the possibility of a few scattered showers. The maximum temperature is expected to reach 25°C.
As we head into the new week, the weather in London will continue to be warm and humid, with some clouds and the occasional shower. But there will also be plenty of sunny spells to enjoy. In fact, the temperatures are expected to be so warm that it may even mark the beginning of a heatwave, with London's temperatures matching those in Barcelona.
In other London news, there have been reports of dive-bombing crows terrorizing a local street and a flight from London to the US being turned back after nine hours. Meanwhile, financial expert Martin Lewis has issued a warning to all London renters, as they may be entitled to thousands of pounds in compensation.
