Britain is set to bask in more hot temperatures as the summer heatwave continues with highs expected to reach around 29C for much of the country.
The UK has been revelling in scorching conditions over the last few weeks and it looks like there is no sign of it cooling down any time soon.
The sun will burn away any threats by mid-morning as the country prepares for another sweltering day.
The northwest, Midlands and southwest of England; Wales and western Scotland are the hot spots of the UK on Wednesday, with the mercury set to reach highs of between 27C and 29C - which will be hotter than Ibiza (27C).
The east coast, which has been significantly cooler over the last couple of weeks, will reach a peak of around 18C while everywhere else should experience at least mid 20s.
Met Office meteorologist Clare Nasir said: "Lots of strong sunshine throughout the day. UV levels will be high and we'll see some very high levels of grass pollen.
"Not a lot of change through the afternoon. A small chance of an isolated shower over the highlands of Scotland. But look at these temperatures coming in, at the very best I'd say 27C to 29C and pleasantly warm along the east coast."
Wednesday night will see temperatures remain above average for this time of year with the whole of Britain set to feel temperatures of mid teens.
Ms Nasir added: "Yet again it's going to be a mild night. Temperatures perhaps a notch down on the last few nights, but certainly warm start to the day come Thursday morning."
