Lightening, hail and strong winds are forecasted in some areas
Storm warnings have been issued across the UK on what is likely to become the hottest day of the year. A yellow warning issued by the Met Office spans east Wales, Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Manchester, Nottingham and Oxford, and will be in place from 2pm to 9pm.
Met Office chief meteorologist Paul Gundersen said: “Although much of the UK will see high temperatures and sunny skies continue on Saturday, in what has a possibility of being the hottest day of the year so far, there’s also the potential for some thunderstorms, which has resulted in a yellow warning being issued for much of central England and parts of east Wales.
“However, the south-east will hold on to the high temperatures the longest and could still reach 32C on Sunday.”
