Yellow Thunderstorm Warning For Yorkshire Coast

From 11am on Sunday, the region is set to be hit by heavy rain.

The Met Office say:

  • There is a good chance driving conditions will be affected by spray, standing water and/or hail, leading to longer journey times by car and bus
  • Delays to train services are possible
  • Probably some damage to a few buildings and structures from lightning strikes
  • Some short-term loss of power and other services is likely
  • Some flooding of a few homes and businesses possible, leading to some damage to buildings or structures

Showers, heavy and thundery, will reach southwest England and Wales later Sunday morning, before spreading and developing more widely during the afternoon. Whilst some areas will miss the heaviest showers, where they do occur 10-15 mm of rain is possible in less than an hour, with 30-40 mm possible over several hours, these larger totals most likely for parts of north and northwest England and southwest Scotland. Hail, frequent lightning and, in southern parts of England and Wales, wind gusts of 35-45 mph will be additional hazards. Heaviest showers and thunderstorms will become more isolated later in the evening.
