Houses 'shook' after a thunderstorm appeared 'in the blink of an eye', causing heavy rainfall and flooding across Manchester on Sunday (June 11).
It was the first time the region had seen any rain in 23 days, with temperatures reaching as high as 30C before the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for thunderstorms across the north west.
On Sunday afternoon, many parts of Manchester were suddenly hit by the torrential downpours that caused roads to flood and even left some people trapped in their cars after they became submerged under a railway bridge.
