THUNDERSTORMS may be set to hit Worcester this weekend say the Met Office.

A yellow weather warning has been issued for large parts of the UK including both Worcester and Evesham on Saturday.

Heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected, with the flooding of homes and businesses a possibility.

The Met Office warns there may be damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds.

The Met Office has reminded the public that fast-flowing or deep floodwater is possible, causing a danger to life, and where flooding or lightning strikes occur, there is a chance of delays and some cancellations to train and bus services.

Spray and sudden flooding could also lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures, and some communities could be cut off if roads flood.

Power cuts are also a possibility.
