After the record-breaking bank holiday weather, the region will see another dry and sunny day although there is a risk of some thundery showers later.

A high of 33.2C (91.6F) at Heathrow Airport yesterday made it the hottest August Bank Holiday Monday on record.

Met Office meteorologist Craig Snell said: "The heatwave is going to continue for some of us for another day with temperatures reaching around 33C, but also across the UK we are also starting to see a transition with some places seeing cloud and fresher air."

Crowds of people flocked to Felixstowe yesterday to enjoy the warm weather on the seafront.
