Britons descended upon the nation's parks and beaches today to enjoy a mini Spring heatwave as temperatures rose to highs of 65F after a chilly start to the month. Elsewhere others were spotted enjoying the sunshine at St James's Park and Regent's Park in London as lockdown-weary Brits took advantage of the rising mercury levels. The sunny weather is expected to last this week, with highs of 68F expected across southern England and the Midlands tomorrow. The sunny weather has been a boost for Brits who, this weekend, returned to pubs and beer gardens across England. Much of the UK is set for a mini heatwave this week with temperatures set to reach 66F this afternoon.
