Moment Piccadilly Station platforms become submerged in water after huge thunderstorm batters city

This is the moment train platforms at Piccadilly Station were left submerged in water after Manchester was battered by torrential rain and thunderstorms.

The station was hit by flooding on Sunday evening (June 11) following the storm, which hit parts of the region 'in the blink of an eye' and put an abrupt end to a 23-day dry spell.

Footage sent to the M.E.N shows rain water gushing down the steps to platforms seven and eight, with huge puddles forming at the base.
