Storms expected after temperatures peak early in week.
The UK heatwave will hit its highest temperatures on Sunday and Monday, before giving way to thunderstorms and potential flooding, forecasters say.
Temperatures are forecast to reach 30C (86F) again on Sunday and as high as 34C (93F) on Monday in some parts of the country.
But from Monday evening through to Wednesday increased humidity will cause thunderstorms and risks of flooding.
The Met Office has issued a 24-hour rain warning for Tuesday.
The yellow alert covers all of Wales and all but the far north of England, and warns people to be aware that there may be disruptive storms.
A Met Office spokeswoman said large amounts of rainfall coming down in short periods on to dry ground could lead to localised flooding.
