It's been a gorgeous weekend in Leeds and Yorkshire with sunny spells and temperatures soaring towards 30C. It's fair to say the UK is in the midst of a mini heatwave and the sun is showing no sign of disappearing with high temperatures forecast today in Leeds.
According to the Met Office, temperatures will peak at 29C but the hot and humid weather is set to trigger thunder and lightning. A warm night will see temperatures of 20C at midnight on Monday.
It will cool to just 17C at 6am - and from them on, temperatures are set to rise for the next few hours before the storm arrives. Up until midday, only sun is forecast.
