However, a new map is set to revolutionise summer socialising, and ensure that Brits can maximise time in the sun. The map, named Sunseekr, tracks which pubs and cafes in your local area are in the sun, in real time. For example, at 3:18pm, on April 28, the map states that there are 21 pubs in the sunshine around London Bridge, including Bunch of Grapes and London Bridge Rooftop. The map also shows you which pubs and cafes are in the shade, so you can avoid those if you're keen to top up your tan. As well as showing you which pubs are in the sun at the time you look at the map, you can also adjust the time, to see how this changes throughout the day. At 8pm tonight, just 11 pubs in the London Bridge area will still be basking in the sun. And you can even change the date, to allow you to plan any future pub trips around the sun. The website was created by architect Mo Dawod, and initially just showed sunny cafes. It has now been expanded to include pubs and Mo has big plans to add restaurants to the website, as well as to turn it into a mobile app. Mo initially unveiled the map on Reddit, explaining that is uses real-time shadow simulation, Mapbox navigation software and data from OpenStreetMap. "It's a design experiment, a side project and a bit of summer fun," he said. If after looking at the map, you are left spoilt for choice of sunny spots, The Sun's travel team recently rounded up their top beer garden picks from beachfront pubs to quaint Cotswolds retreats. Making the cut were The Terrace, Alexandra Palace, London, famed for its stunning views on the capital, and the Church House Inn in Devon, which features a long stretching garden next to Marldon Church. How to keep cool in a heatwave Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks. Here are three ways to keep cool according to the NHS... Keep out of the heat if you can. If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter. Cool yourself down. Have cold food and drinks, avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes. Keep your living space cool. Close windows during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees. Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep. Temperatures are set to climb as high as 25 degrees in the UK this afternoon, before reaching a peak of 29 degrees on Wednesday and Thursday. Met Office meteorologist Craig Snell said: "We're certainly on track to see the warmest spell of the year so far." He added that the temperature is higher than average for this time of year. At the end of April it is usually about 12C in the north and 16C in the south, so some areas could be more than 10C higher than the average. But records for April and May are unlikely to be broken as the highest temperature for April stands at 29.4C, and May's record is 32.8C. Met Office Chief Forecaster Matthew Lehnert said: 'We are not expecting the April UK temperature record to be broken, but some locations may nudge local records. 'Often warm spells are driven by warmer air arriving from further south, but the origins of next week's air are from Scandinavia and central Europe. "This air mass will be warmed by compression as the high pressure begins to build, and this warmth will be boosted by daytime heating from the April sun.'

A game-changing new London pub map shows which boozers are currently in the sunshine
Everyone Londoner knows the feeling. The clouds part, the sun starts to beam down, the city streets bask in warmth – and you've got a sudden urge to sink an alfresco pint in the sunshine. Pints in the sun are one of life's simple pleasures, but in a city like London – with its many narrow lanes and ever-growing skyline – finding a pub where you can soak up some rays without being interrupted by shadows is often easier said than done. Well, until now, that is. A new map has been created, showing which London pubs are in the sunshine at any given time of day. Better yet, not only does the map consider the position of the sun in the sky, but it also takes into account the height of surrounding buildings – thereby telling you which pubs are in a shadow and which ones aren't. Named Sunseekr, the web app was made by Mo Dawod – an architect by trade – and it was initially made to reveal sunny cafés (now, it has the option to show boozers too). Dawod first unveiled the map on Reddit, explaining that it uses real-time shadow simulation, Mapbox navigation software and data from OpenStreetMap. 'It's a design experiment, a side project, and a bit of summer fun,' Dawod said. Sunseekr is interactive, letting users explore the city's pubs and cafés in real time, but also helping Londoners to plan ahead: you can set the time you'll be having a pint/coffee, and see where the best spots will be to get some vitamin D. And if you're not feeling the sun? The map also serves to show which establishments are in the shade, if you'd rather stay out of the heat. .

Cerence (NasdaqGS:CRNC) Stock Soars 44% Despite Disappointing Q1 Earnings
Cerence reported disappointing earnings for Q1 2025, revealing declines in both revenue and net income. Despite this, the company's stock rose 44% over the last quarter. Key events, such as the strategic partnership with Mapbox and an enhanced collaboration with NVIDIA, may have bolstered investor confidence regarding future growth prospects. Cerence's Q2 guidance, predicting a revenue increase to $74-77 million, could also have positively influenced market sentiment. Amid a broader market slump where major indices and stocks, like Tesla and Nvidia, experienced declining performance due to concerns about tariffs and economic uncertainty, Cerence's position and guidance contrastingly suggested resilience and optimism about its innovative technology offerings. Combined with the ongoing amendments to its corporate governance structure to mitigate liability, these factors likely contributed to a significant positive movement in Cerence's stock amidst a volatile economic landscape. Unlock comprehensive insights into our analysis of Cerence stock here. Despite more recent positive news for Cerence Inc. (NasdaqGS: CRNC), over the past year, the company's total shareholder return has been a decline of 29.44%. This performance lags behind the broader US market, which returned 15.3% and the US Software industry with a return of 4.4% over the same period. Cerence's financial challenges have been evident, with significant declines in revenue and increasing net losses, as reflected in its Q1 2025 earnings report, showing revenue at US$50.9 million and a net loss of US$24.29 million. Amidst these challenges, the company has pursued growth through key partnerships, including alliances with Jaguar Land Rover and Audi announced in 2024, using Cerence's AI capabilities. Leadership changes, such as appointing Brian Krzanich as CEO and the launch of new AI products, underscore efforts to pivot towards innovation in the automotive sector while managing unprofitability and volatile share performance.
