The Met Office has forecast rain to hit 21 areas on Tuesday as weather maps show the UK's heatwave coming to an end. Temperatures peaked last week, with parts of the nation experiencing some of up to 37C. However, it now appears conditions are set to do a U-turn, with forecasts showing there will be no more signs of extreme heat but instead rainfall.

The weather agency warns that showers will begin tonight across the northwest, bringing in strong winds, before the showers progress tomorrow across the rest of the nation.
