Thankfully, London has been blessed with sunshine and above-average temperatures over the past few days, creating perfect conditions for walking or cycling to work."

According to BBC weather there is a risk of thundery showers at peak travel times of 9am and 5pm. Heavy rain is predicted by the Met office at various other times of the day."
