Wow, I've just spotted that the West Midlands has a severe weather warning in place for today
Looks like most of the risk is restricted to the North and West of the region, but I'm *just* inside the danger zone.
From the Met Office site:
"Slow moving heavy and locally thundery downpours with a risk of hail are likely through most of Thursday. The heaviest rain will be accompanied by strong and gusty winds. The public should be aware that the heavy rain may lead to localised surface water flooding and poor driving conditions."
Confusingly, there also seems to be a warning in place for the East Midlands, but it doesn't seem to be covered in the graphics?
