A yellow weather warning has been issued for Suffolk as thunderstorms are expected.

The Met Office has issued the warning for thunderstorms starting from 10am on Thursday until midnight.

According to the weather warning, there is a small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds.

People in Suffolk have been urged to stay alert to spray and sudden flooding, which could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures.

Power cuts could occur in the region and other services to some homes and business might be lost as a result of the weather.

It comes after Suffolk was hit by a heavy thunderstorm at the weekend after a couple of days of sweltering conditions.
