Heavy showers and thunderstorms are set to hit large parts of the UK today - after the country recorded the warmest day of the year so far yesterday.
The Met Office has issued three yellow thunderstorm warnings from midday, with people warned of the chance of flooding and power cuts.
It will feel warm and humid, it said, with temperatures set to hit 27C in the southeast.
The first alert covering most areas of the west of the UK, including the majority of Wales, comes in at midday and lasts until 10pm.
The second is for the western half of Northern Ireland between 11am and 7pm. The third is for western parts of Scotland between 2pm today to 4am tomorrow.
