People in the North East are being warned to expect thunderstorms on Sunday.
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for thunderstorms and localised flooding, running from 1pm to 9pm today. The alert covers Newcastle, Gateshead, Northumberland, North and South Tyneside, Sunderland and County Durham.
A spokesperson said: "Whilst there remains some uncertainty in whether thunderstorms develop as cooler conditions follow from the west, there is a chance that an organised line of thunderstorms could develop across northern Britain during Sunday afternoon before clearing east into the North Sea during the evening. This is more likely to happen across eastern parts of the warning area including North East England and eastern Scotland.
