BREAKING: Lancashire tornado warning issued tonight with risk of 60mph winds, hail and lightning
The Tornado and Storm Research Organisation has forecast a tornado to hit the county and other parts of the UK on Sunday night until 10pm. The organisation has said there could be wind gusts to 60mph - which could cause damage.
The region could be hit by 'a couple of tornados', hailed to 30-40mm diameter, wind gusts of up to 60mp and 'CG lightning'. The TSRO has said the severe weather could hit 'much of the North of England' as well as other parts of the country and Scotland.They said: "A cold front will move eastwards this afternoon, with strong shear and instability ahead of it.
"Storms may well merge into a line, given shear vectors parallel to the cold front, but some more discrete developing is possible on the southern end of the line, and also along a pre-frontal trough, especially across parts of Lincs and eastern parts of NE England. "There is still some uncertainty over the overall morphology and tornado risk, especially as cloud bases are relatively high.
"However, the overall situation appears to be one which warrants a tornado risk over a severe thunderstorm risk."
