Suffolk has broken the record for the hottest June day - four times in one day.
The Met Office confirmed the record was first set at 36.9C in Wattisham, followed by 37C in Santon Downham, then 37.1C in Cavendish and 37.3C in Santon Downham again.
The record-breaking temperatures surpassed the previous record of 36.7C, recorded just a day earlier in Merryfield, Somerset.
The authority has also warned that temperatures are still rising.
