FLASH flooding hit the county on Tuesday night, and more rain is expected tomorrow.

On Tuesday night the county was hit by the thunderstorm as it travelled north through the Midlands.

Drivers were forced to drive through water in some places and the Co-Op shop in Canada Way, Lower Wick, had to close.

Worcester News Camera Club member William Hatch caught a dramatic image of lightning, writing: "Well that was truly something, first time trying to capture lighting.

"Luckily had a nice view to do so.

"Came out super purple/pink on my camera."

Elsewhere in Worcestershire there were some road closures after two inches of rain fell in some places.

Dave Throup, from the Environment Agency, said to "watch out" for "torrential rain, frequent lightning & flash flooding" as more was expected this afternoon and night.
