The Met Office is warning that the east will be hit with a huge thunder system as lightning storms hit the South West. A map was shared showing the direction of the brutal weather.
On Twitter the Met Office wrote: "The risk of lightning will begin to reduce across #Cornwall in the next couple of hours, but will increase further east. Short duration heavy rainfall remains probable for some locations. Yellow #lightning warning in force. Stay #Weatheraware."
It comes after the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for lightning today (Saturday, June 18) covering most of the South West region. Power cuts, building damage and other disruption is possible this afternoon and this evening, the forecaster has advised.
