Weather forecast
The last part of the working week (Thursday/Friday) will be warm (up to 20 degrees Celsius) and cloudy with sunny intervals. Perfect English weather, in fact. Over the weekend it will get even warmer - up to 21 degrees - and more continental, with clear blue skies. The weather is likely to break on Monday or Tuesday, with rain showers likely. Great weather, in effect, for the nine-to-five office worker.
