The county will be battered by thunderstorms and heavy rain on Friday, the Met Office has warned.

And then Saturday will see strong winds, particularly during the daytime.

See today's forecast from The Met Office here:

The yellow warning for rain has been issued for most of England and all of Wales. Heavy rain followed by heavy showers and thunderstorms could hit the county.

It is in place all day on Friday, and the Met Office has warned that there is a small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded.

Spray and flooding could lead to dangerous driving conditions, and there was a small chance that some communities could be cut off by flooded roads.

Then on Saturday, strong winds are expected to cause disruption.

The Met Office said some bus and train journeys could be affected, and people hoping to travel should give themselves extra time.

Fallen trees are also possible in the bad weather.
