With showers and some thunderstorms forecast in parts of the UK this week, Brits are already missing the sunshine.
The first half of June has seen temperatures hit at high as 28C in areas of southern England, with areas in the north enjoying high temperatures too.
But the spell of dry sunny weather came to an end for many last night, with the Met Office issuing warnings for thunderstorms.
Now, hopes have been raised that sweltering temperatures and clear skies could make a return in July.

Some are forecasting that temperatures of up to 36C will be seen in France towards the end of this month, moving towards the south of England, according to the Express.
Meanwhile, the BBC's long range forecast suggests temperatures could be "a little above normal" in late June, with "potentially sunnier conditions" developing.
But the Met Office has warned that predicting the weather so far in advance is not easy to do.
While many are longing for a sunny summer this year as the Euros get underway and family and friends are reunited after lockdown, it could be too soon to get too excited.
Asked whether the UK could be heading towards a July heatwave, the Met Office told the MEN: "Looking as far ahead as July brings with it the usual uncertainties of predicting weather so far ahead but initial modelling suggest that usual summertime conditions are most probably across much of the UK from the start of July.
"We’re likely to see periods of dry, settled conditions, interspersed with occasional days of thicker cloud, rain and stronger winds.
"Temperatures should be close to average for the time of year, with southeastern areas likely to see the warmest temperatures.
"Overall, rainfall should be close to average for the time of year, and although the southeast may see fewer spells of persistent rain, thunderstorms are possible during warmer periods."
Looking ahead to this weekend, people in Wales and northern England can expect to see cloudy and breezy weather on Friday, while those in central and southern England have been warned to brace for heavy downpours.
England’s much-anticipated Euro 2020 clash with Scotland at Wembley Stadium on Friday night could even be hit with thunder and showers, forecasters have said.
The Met Office has predicted a 90 per cent chance of rain in the area for kick-off at 8pm.
