Leeds weather: Full weekend forecast as weather warnings and thundery showers head towards the region
With two thunderstorm warnings for Leeds this weekend, here’s the latest forecast.
The Met Office has issued two weather warnings lasting throughout the first half of the weekend. The first, from 11am to 8pm today (July 18), covers Leeds and much of East and North Yorkshire and the North East.
The second comes into effect at midnight, covering nearly all of England until 9pm on Saturday evening (July 19).
While the yellow warnings are in effect, the weather agency has warned that areas of heavy, thundery rain may lead to disruptions to roads and railway services.
According to BBC Weather, Leeds can expect some thundery showers today, with further thunder expected on Saturday and Sunday. However, the Met Office’s own weather forecast predicts Leeds will stay lightning-free.
