Met Office issues yellow thunderstorm warning for Nottinghamshire as heavy rain expected

A thunderstorm warning affecting Nottinghamshire has been issued by the Met Office. Heavy rain and thunderstorms will mean there is a chance of 'flooding and disruption' according to the experts.

The entirety of the county is included in the yellow weather warning which is in place from 4am on Sunday, October 23 until 5am on Monday, October 24. It will largely affect the south of England as well as the Midlands and Wales, with Derbyshire and Lincolnshire also expecting a lot of rainfall.

Drivers are being warned that spray and sudden flooding could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures - while there is a "small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds".
