We've got one more bank holiday to enjoy this weekend (August 23-25). This is your chance to soak up the last of the London summer before the nights get longer and the sunshine feels like a distant memory. Luckily, the forecast for this weekend is pretty nice - ahead of next week, when the tail end of Hurricane Erin could bring wind, rain, and general wintry things to Britain.

The Hampstead Storm on 14 August 1975 in north London brought an extraordinary 170.8mm of rainfall in 24 hours, leading to widespread flooding and chaos.

The week will kick off with bright skies and warm temperatures reaching up to 22C, before transitioning to wet conditions by Tuesday.

Saturday will be mostly overcast with a likelihood of light rain, beginning with a 50% chance of precipitation and temperatures ranging from 9C to 17C.

The Met Office forecasts a week of mixed weather for London, featuring a blend of clouds, sunshine, and rain as Easter approaches, starting April 14.
