37C today?
After a roasting past few days, temperatures are set to rise even higher over England, Wales and a large part of Scotland today.
I would suspect that somewhere in the southern Midlands, perhaps around Worcestershire or Herefordshire or running up the sandy soils of the Severn Valley may well see a high of 37C!
However, not everywhere joins in the sunshine today. Thundery showers will be moving in from the southwest as more humid air arrives, bringing some welcome rainfall this evening and overnight for some, although other parts will miss the storms completely.
It's a cooler day for Thursday, although we could still find temperatures into the upper 20's.
Whatever the weather, keep the sun shining.
