It'll still be warm and humid this evening with some hazy sunshine. The night will be muggy but probably stay dry. Heavy, thundery showers could affect some parts around dawn, with torrential downpours possible.
Tomorrow, heavy showers or thunderstorms remain a risk during rush hour, but these will clear during the morning to give a cloudy, warm and humid day for most of us with some brighter spells.
Maximum temperature: 22C (72F).

Contractors have made a 'swift' return to a recently renovated block of flats in Biggleswade... to reinstate nest holes for birds.
The flats in Winston Crescent have just been done up, but residents contacted the RSPB when they realised nests for swifts hadn't been included.
Aragon Housing Association said it was only too pleased to provide new homes for "our smaller, feathered friends" and they will "consult the RSPB on future building and refurbishment work to see where we can do more to help”.

The West African dwarf crocodiles are classified as vulnerable by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, and Whipsnade Zoo's four new reptiles will be added to the European Studbook.

Alex Cliffe, from the zoo, said: "Amazingly, even before hatching, the baby crocs can actually call to their mum from inside the egg.
"That means she can help excavate them from the nest and carry the hatchlings down to the water for safety."
