As the summer heatwave continues, families have been visiting some of the area’s most popular attractions – such as Valley Gardens in Harrogate and the River Nidd in Knaresborough – to soak up the sun.
Today (Wednesday) is forecast to be another warm day, with temperatures reaching a high of 25C.
But rain is set to arrive tomorrow morning (Thursday), with a Met Office yellow warning for thunderstorms in place.
Here is a selection of photos of people enjoying the sun, taken by our photographer Gerard Binks.
