England’s hottest day of the year so far was recorded in Gosport, Hampshire, with temperatures reaching 32.4C, but a cool front making its way south from Scotland will see temperatures drop to the low-to-mid 20s for much of England from Tuesday, Met Office meteorologist Becky Mitchell revealed.

For much of England and Wales, last month was one of the top five driest Junes on record and this surprisingly long heatwave has seen rain hold off since the warm weather began.

However, by next weekend bands of rain could potentially be coming in from the west increasing the chance of persistent showers.
