The Met Office has warned that flooding of homes and businesses could happen quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds.

Flooding may also cause delays and some cancellations to train and bus services or power cuts in some areas.

Some large areas of rain are likely, with some embedded intense rainfall predicted, that could see 70mm or more in a few hours in some locations.
