The Met Office have advised that heavy showers and thunderstorms may lead to some flooding or travel disruption.
Weatherquest meteorologist Fred Best has said that temperatures will finally feel a little cooler today, though it will still be fairly humid.
“It’s starting out quite cloudy this morning,” he said.
“We should see some heavy showers and there is a risk of this throughout the day with perhaps some thunder.
“It will feel much cooler than recent days though the humidity is still high at this stage.
“We may see some sunshine break through later on this afternoon but there is still a chance we could have lightning.
“It is very hit and miss but we are certainly seeing some highly active areas, especially around the east coast such as Lowestoft.”
