There are warnings of heavy showers and thunderstorms which are likely to hit parts of Sussex tonight.
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for rain and thunder across some part of southern England.
Rain and thunderstorms are likely to hit on Thursday night and then continue through much of Friday.
Many places will miss these but the public should be aware of the potential for isolated disruption due to surface water flooding, lightning strikes and hail.
The Met Office's chief forecaster's said: "A warm and humid airmass covers southern Britain at present. This is already becoming increasingly unstable and producing a few thunderstorms through Thursday, but these are expected to become more widespread overnight into Friday and extend further north into the Midlands and Wales.
"Many place will miss the worst of these - some may stay dry - but where they do occur, 20-30 mm rain may fall in a short time, leading to some surface water flooding, whilst lightning and hail may be additional hazards."
