Greater Manchester faced another sudden thunderstorm on Sunday evening (June 18) that brought 'monsoon' rain, flood alerts and an elderly woman stranded in her house.
Flash floods caused roads around the region to become flooded, as drivers waded through water on submerged streets, with trees also falling and crashing down onto tram lines, resulting in delays on the network.
An elderly woman, whose house was flooded on Water Street in Radcliffe, was rescued by fire crews as the road was blocked off, with residents reporting a wave of 'monsoon'-like rain.
