Enjoy the sun while it lasts...severe rain warning for Essex this weekend
Essex could enjoy blazing temperatures in the next few days, but the summer sunshine is set to come to an abrupt halt this weekend.
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning of rain across the region for Saturday.
A forecast is warning of heavy, thundery showers and the possibility of "significant flooding".
Before the rain arrives, temperatures are predicted to reach 28C on Friday.
