Those with lung and heart diseases are being urged to be careful due to high levels of air pollution today.

People who suffer from lung conditions such as asthma are being told to take their inhalers more regularly if needed.
On Monday readers were confused as to why their cars were covered in dirt but it was later revealed it was down to the dust being blown over from the Sahara.
Pollution levels are as high as eight or nine today in Croydon but with showers expected tomorrow, the quality of air is set to improve.
