Many regions of the UK could be hit by violent thunderstorms in the coming days - as this striking weather map shows. Monday will be the wettest day, with thundery showers expected across the Midlands, parts of north Wales and the Home Counties, the Mirror reports.
As a band of low pressure works its way southeast parts of Conwy, Denbighshire and Cheshire will experience storms by 10am. They will then move across to the Midlands, particularly Birmingham and the Black Country by lunchtime, forecasters at InMeteo say.
They have produced an interactive map on website Ventusky, which details the movement of the low pressure. It highlights how most of the UK will experience rain by the afternoon, though it won't be thundery everywhere. The heaviest of which, without the storms, is anticipated in eastern areas, like Cambridgeshire, by 4pm. By which time, thunderstorms will be worst along the North Sea coast, especially in Lincolnshire.

In an interview with OK! a few hours before he was due back on stage for the live semi-final, Leightonjay revealed that when he was growing up he kept his dancing talents a secret from everyone to avoid being teased “I loved Grease when I was young because the dancing in that is respected and cool, whereas growing up in Scotland it was the complete opposite – as a dancer I wasn’t really respected or cool at all,” he explains.
