Parts of Britain are hanging for potentially dangerous flash floods as there is thunderstorm and torrential rains on the weekend.
The Meteorological Office has issued an amber weather warning for South-East England as it is expected to fall over a few hours of rainfall over a month on Saturday morning.
It says that there is a possibility of rapid flow and deep flood waters, causing road and transport disruption, as well as power cuts.
The warning for torrential downpores comes in the days after the third UK heatwave of the year, which crossed the UK health and declared several hosspipe sanctions.
This will make the flood more likely and serious as the dry land will not be able to absorb as much water.
Amber warning covers a section of the South Coast, London and Cambridge, and is applicable on Saturday from 04:00 BST to 11:00 pm.
The region may receive 20 to 40 mm of rain within an hour, the meteorological office has warned, which can accumulate from 70–100 mm in a few hours.
It states that there is a possibility of flooding in homes and businesses, which will be “quickly”, while this quantity of surface water will make driving difficult and this can shut down the road.
Electrical attacks, hailstorms and strong winds can also cause train and bus cancellation.
The yellow weather warning will cover the rest of the Eastern, Central and Northern England and one part of Eastern Scotland. A yellow warning is already applicable to parts of Eastern England.
Amber warning indicated that an increased chance can affect the life of serious weather day to day, including a possible threat to life. The yellow warning is less severe.
The last member warning in London was in January 2024, when Storm Henk killed parts of Central England and Wales, according to the Central Office.
The hot and humid air in the atmosphere develops with thunder when it is present under the very cold air. This destabilizes the air, allowing the clouds to create heavy rain and generate – and the storm.
Initially in northern France, thunderstorms will develop, but they will be allowed to “grow” as they move north in the eastern half of Britain on Saturday.
After Friday night arrives, the storm is estimated to move inland, pushing north in England on Saturday morning before arriving in Scotland by noon.
Yellow warnings for the rain cover parts of England and Scotland on Sunday and Monday.

One may think that the heavy dose of rain will help reduce these drought conditions – but because the rain in the local areas will be very heavy, it will run rapidly dry, ripened earth rapidly, perhaps the local sewer and waterways will be heavy.
Adequate recovery in reservoirs and groundwater aquifer levels will require more continuous magic of wet weather.
