Yellow warning for Thunderstorms issued across Ayrshire

Scattered thunderstorms moving north tonight and early Wednesday could lead to some power cuts and travel delays.

Scattered thunderstorms are expected to affect parts of south-west and southern England this evening, moving north quickly across the UK overnight, clearing Scotland and eastern England by mid-morning on Wednesday.

Although some places will miss the thunderstorms altogether, where they do occur there is the potential for frequent lightning, hail and gusty winds, as well as sudden downpours in a few places.
