Suffolk could be hit with another wave of hot weather just weeks after thunderstorm and flood warnings.
The county is under a yellow Met Office warning for thunderstorms until 7am today.
The forecaster has warned the weather may cause flash flooding and damage to some buildings.
Temperatures have been in the low 20s across the county and are expected to remain that way into next week.
However, new weather data suggests another heatwave is on the way to parts of England at the start of next month.
The GFS weather model at WX charts shows temperatures in parts of the county could reach 28C on Saturday, September 5, Sunday, September 6, and Monday, September 7.
In Suffolk, temperatures could peak around 27C on the Sunday and Monday.
In order to be classed as a heatwave, the temperature must be 27C or above for three consecutive days.
What does the Met Office forecast say?
The long range Met Office forecast for the start of September said: “Likely remaining unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain across all areas at times.
“Rainfall amounts will probably be above average for the time year across many areas with the wettest conditions in the northwest.
"There is potential for some strong winds at times. Some drier and more settled interludes could develop, perhaps becoming longer in duration across southern areas later in this period.
“Temperatures are likely to be near average, although some short-lived warm or very warm spells are possible, especially in the south.”
