Met Office warns of possible lightning strikes and flooded homes as it issues thunderstorm warning
Parts of England, Wales and Northern Ireland face a washout on Sunday evening and into Monday morning.
Frequent lightning, hail and strong winds are predicted to accompany stronger thunderstorms, particularly across south-western parts of England and Wales, with a yellow warning in place from 8pm on Sunday until 4am on Monday. A few places may see 20mm to 30mm fall in less than an hour, while other places may not see much rainfall at all, forecasters warned.
Motorists have been told to prepare for more challenging driving conditions affected by hail and spray from standing water on the roads, while commuters should also expect delays on train services. The Met Office has warned there is also likely to be some damage to buildings and structures from lightning strikes and gusty winds.
