The West Midlands has been feeling the heat, with temperatures over 30C (86F) in many areas on Monday.
It could be one of the hottest June days on record, but temperatures are forecast to fall as the week goes on.

It's been a lovely day to enjoy nature, especially if you're an insect
The UK Health Security Agency has said the hot weather is likely to have a "significant impact" on health and social care services and has upgraded its weather warning, external for the West Midlands to amber.
It said the high temperatures would also mean increased health risks for over-65s and younger people, thereby increasing demand for healthcare services.
The warning is expected to remain in place until Wednesday morning.
Fire services around the region have asked people to be careful with outdoor fires, with the ground very dry.
