A heatwave has been sweeping through Scotland as record high temperatures and humidity levels soar across the country.
Scotland was declared to be in an official heatwave by the Met Office, as those in the Threave area of Dumfries even saw temperatures spike at a sweltering 30.7C on Monday, June 12. Highs of 32C were recorded in the Midland region of the UK.
However, according to the BBC Weather forecast, thunderstorms will arrive during the weekend in parts of Scotland, as the dry heat triggers some adverse weather. The central belt is expected to see thunder and lightning from 1pm until 7pm, with highs of 21C and lows of 11C.
