This weather is set to last until about 6am on Tuesday 24 May - however, the outlook for the rest of the week remains in the low 20s temperature-wise, with storms to return at the end of the month.
The news comes as holidaymakers in Spain are experiencing temperatures of almost 40C in a record-breaking May.
