The Met Office have just issued a ‘Be Aware’ severe weather weather for thunderstorms and heavy rain on the Isle of Wight this weekend.
The warning is valid from Midday on Friday (12 June) until 0700 on Saturday.
It reads,
Isolated severe thunderstorms seem likely to develop on Friday, these succeeded by a band of more widespread heavy rain and occasional thunderstorms, moving gradually north later in the day, affecting much of the highlighted region into the early hours of Saturday morning.
The public should be aware that there is a chance of some very localised significant disruption, mainly from surface water flooding. Lightning and hail could also cause some impacts.
Update:
The warning period has been amended to 0100 on Friday to 0900 Sat 13 Jun.
The good news is that the weather seems to be dry and fine for most of Saturday and Sunday.
