Yellow weather warning for Friday issued for Grantham by the Met Office

A yellow weather warning for thunderstorms has been issued across the county later this week.

The warning was issued by the Met Office yesterday, with slow-moving thundery downpours predicted across South Kesteven on Friday, August 6.

The Met Office say there is a small chance this could lead to homes and businesses being flooded, with damage to some buildings from flood water.

They also stated that where flooding or lightning strikes occur, delays and some cancellations to train and bus services could occur.

Road closures and challenging driving conditions are possible.

The yellow warning covers 10am until 11.59pm on Friday.
