When thunderstorms are expected to hit Greater Manchester today as Man City parade affected
12.06.2023 - 09:27 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
A yellow warning for thunderstorms was in place across the weekend for Greater Manchester, but it was only yesterday afternoon that it made itself very known. Within minutes the hottest day of the year turned to thunder and lightning with flash flooding.
After temperatures had reached a high of 30oC, Manchester's first rainfall in 23 days caused travel chaos across the region in the form of flash flooding. It even led to the brief suspension of day two of the Parklife Festival in Heaton Park due to safety concerns, with festival goers describing 'chaos' as they ran for cover or were drenched by the downpours.
The extremely sudden severe rainfall caused water mains to burst and some were trapped in their cars as they were submerged in rainwater. Some lanes on parts of the M60 motorway also had to be shut following the heavy rain.

A further thunderstorm warning from the Met Office is in place today (Monday) with the potential for a repeat of yesterday's torrential conditions. The warning runs from midday to 9pm and covers almost the entirety of Greater Manchester, apart from areas such as Horwich and some parts of Wigan.
Giving the warning for today's thunderstorms, the Met Office says: "These will be slow moving and intense leading to some large accumulations with in excess of 30 mm in an hour for some locations and the potential for 60-80 mm or more in a few hours where thunderstorms align for a time. Frequent lightning and hail are likely to be additional hazards."
Despite the blue skies and sun this morning, thunderstorms are forecast to hit the region twice today. They could first hit at around midday before the blue skies return.
