A CLOUDY start today for some, with the chance of isolated early morning showers, will soon clear to leave a warm and bright day.

There will be spells of sunshine for all, but with a risk of the occasional thunderstorms towards the end of the afternoon as temperatures are expected to reach 24°C.

Thunderstorms will continue to affect some this evening, merging into longer spells of showery rain overnight as temperatures fall to 14°C.
