And despite the weather expected to cool over the coming days, the temperature is still set to remain warm – raising the possibility of more tombstoning incidents.

However, Portsmouth City Council has pointed out there are a number of dangers when taking part in the dare-devil activity.
Councillor Ben Dowling, member for culture, leisure and economic development, said: ‘We strongly condemn tombstoning from our seafronts and ask that people seriously consider the potential life-changing or even fatal consequences one wrong jump can have for you and your loved ones.
‘The sea may look inviting but jumping from a great height risks shallow waters, submerged objects, serious shock from cold water and strong currents that can make swimming or getting out of the water impossible.’
