It is expected to remain warm this evening and emergency services have issued warnings about dogs in cars, campfires and swimming.

Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service said: "With the high temperatures expected to continue into the evening, it may be tempting to swim in open water, but please don't be tempted to - it is dangerous."

Over the weekend, temperatures are expected to fall and rain has been forecast.
