A weather warning for heavy rain has been issued for Nottinghamshire.
The yellow warning - the least severe of the three levels from the Met Office - is currently in place from 1am on Tuesday morning until 10pm on Wednesday night.
Forecasters have warned that the high volume of rain expected, along with dry ground from the recent heatwave, could lead to flash flooding.
Hail is also a possibility, the Met Office said.
The forecast for Notts reads: "While preceding days will have seen only isolated thunderstorms the developing set-up on Tuesday and Wednesday provides the ingredients for more widespread and energetic storms.
"The public should be aware of the risk of localised disruption to travel, and more generally to summer holiday activities."
Despite the rain, temperatures will still reach 26C on Tuesday and 23C on Wednesday.
