There's a yellow weather warning in place until 3pm tomorrow (22 August)

There's currently a yellow weather warning in place until 3pm tomorrow (22 August) with the worst of the conditions expected overnight - however George Shimmin says there's also concern of a potential further warning for Friday.

He added it's unseasonable to experience weather like this at this time of year:
