The Met Office have issued a 'Yellow' weather warning for thunderstorms.

The area affected by the warning is pretty broad - stretching from Hartlepool in the north to Peterborough in the south, Hull in the east and stretching well into Wales.

It's difficult to predict where the storms will hit, but where they do, there could be some disruption. Expect:

  • Flooding.
  • Delays on roads and to rail services.
  • Short term power loss.
  • Damage to trees and buildings.

If you find yourself outside and hear thunder, protect yourself by finding a safe enclosed shelter (such as a car). Do not shelter under or near trees, or other structures which may be struck by lightning.

The warning is in force until 21:00 tonight.

Good morning, Selby, on this fresh feeling monday morning.

There's been some rain overnight and today's going to be a lot cooler than we have been used to.

Today it's going to be predominantly cloudy, with highs of 20°. It'll be into the high-teens throughout most of the week as we get a taste of more changeable weather. Looking decent by the weekend though.
