BRITS are enjoying sunshine and warm conditions today as temperatures reach 20C, but rain is still on the cards for some.
The temperature shift comes just days after the UK was battered by Storm Kathleen which left many parts of the country flooded.
But far better weather is now on the cards for many Brits, according to the Met Office.
Forecasters predict highs of 20C today in London, making the capital warmer than balmy 17C Dubrovnik and Split in Croatia.
East Anglia, East Midlands and Greater London will experience the best of the weather, the Met Office says.
Residents in Norwich and Ipswich could also enjoy highs of 19C at around 4pm this afternoon.

Meanwhile, Birmingham, Nottingham, Manchester and Sheffield should expect balmy weather with highs of 18C.
However, Met Office maps have revealed that parts of the country, namely Cornwall and South Wales, experienced some rain despite the largely pleasant weather.
This morning saw a few lingering showers in the far north-west, but it was otherwise sunny in the northern half of the UK.
Conditions could turn cloudier further south, with scattered showers in places.
