Brits are set for a washout today in the north with thunderstorms and heavy rain, but it should be hot in the south with the mercury rising to 22C.
The UK is in the middle of an unsettled spell of weather due to a front heading in from the Atlantic bringing stormy conditions.
Still in parts of the UK on Wednesday there was plenty of sunshine with Durham receiving eight hours and the warmest place was Ulrich, in Lincolnshire, with 20C.
