The Met Office said: "Unsettled, hot and humid weather is likely to continue for many through Wednesday with a risk of severe thunderstorms, especially in central and southern areas.

"There is uncertainty in the location of these, but they will be heavy with the potential for torrential downpours.

"Through the second half of the week, much of the UK is likely to remain humid and very warm, perhaps hot giving the possibility of further heavy showers and thunderstorms.

"Fresher conditions are expected to gradually spread in from the west, perhaps most likely during the weekend.

"Thereafter, as we approach early July it may turn more settled with longer spells of drier weather, mainly in the northeast.

"Temperatures will return closer to normal, although it will continue to feel warm."

Temperatures could reach to a high of 23C on Wednesday, with temperatures dipping slightly to 21C on Thursday.
