A SECOND weather warning that thunderstorms could hit Worcestershire has been issued by the Met Office.

A yellow weather warning for thunder and lightning is now also in place throughout Monday as it has been across the weekend.

The Met Office warns the thunderstorms could cause flooding and disruption in places on Monday (September 2).

The weather warning is in place from Midnight until 11.59pm and stretches from the east of Scotland, covers the Midlands and stops near to the south coast of England .

It said: "On Monday, areas of heavy showers and thunderstorms are likely to be ongoing from overnight and expected to continue to affect parts of the UK through the day.

"The focus for thunderstorms and impacts is expected to gradually move east later in the day.

"The extent of these thunderstorms remains very uncertain and whilst many places will miss them, some places may see 30 to 40 mm of rain fall in less than an hour and perhaps over 60-80 mm in one or two places.

"Frequent lightning strikes and hail will be additional hazards."

Worcester weather forecast on Monday

The Met Office predicts the weather in Worcester will be cloudy and humid, with rain at times, especially during the morning, locally heavy and thundery.

"Probably turning drier by the afternoon but still with occasional showers. Light winds. Maximum temperature 24C."
