Now forecasters say the heatwave will continue today with highs of 30C expected across the county - and it could get even hotter on Monday and Tuesday.

It will, however, feel a little cooler along the coast.

Yesterday saw Manston in Thanet named one of the sunniest places in the country with temperatures not falling below 24C from 9am to midnight and a high of 32°C from 2pm to 5pm.

And there is no immediate respite from the heat.

The Met Office says it is expecting soaring temperatures to last until at least Thursday.
