THE Met Office has issued Wirral with a yellow weather warning as thunderstorms and rain are set to batter the borough.
The warning comes into place from 1am on Saturday, September 21 and is in place until midnight.
Experts have warned that thunderstorms and heavy showers could cause some disruption over the weekend.
Metrologists have said that spray and sudden flooding could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures while there is also a small chance that some communities become cut off by flooded roads.
Where flooding or lightning strikes occur, there is a chance of delays and some cancellations to train and bus services.
There is also a slight chance that power cuts could occur and other services to some homes and businesses could be lost as well as a small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds.
There is a small chance of fast flowing or deep floodwater causing danger to life.
A spokesperson for the Met Office said: “Whilst there is some uncertainty in the details , scattered showers and thunderstorms are likely to develop and spread northwestwards at times later on Friday night and through Saturday.
“While much of the time it will be dry, and not all places will see these, where they do occur 20-40 mm could fall in less than an hour, with a small chance of isolated accumulations of 50-70 mm over the course of a few hours.
“In addition, hail and frequent lightning may accompany the most intense storms, especially during Saturday afternoon and evening in parts of the Midlands, southern England and east Wales.”
