ANOTHER sweltering day at work? Or perhaps you're the unlucky one trapped underneath the office air con. 

If this sounds familiar, the bad news is you've got at least another 24 hours to endure yet.

Temperatures are expected to reach 26 degrees today, Tuesday, but with slightly more cloud than yesterday. 

It will be another warm evening too before Wednesday will be 'hot, humid and sunny', according to the Met Office. 

Temperatures are expected to reach 28 degrees before it becomes much cooler in time for the weekend. 

A Met Office spokesman added: "Thursday will be fresher, though some places will stay dry with sunshine.

"Rain and strong winds will arrive late on Thursday into Friday.

"Saturday will be brighter again with showers."
