Daily Mail reports Thursday that large areas of the UK have been put on alert for heavy rain and gales of up to 70mph today as a rare June storm swept in from the Atlantic.

Downpours at Edgbaston in Birmingham have already delayed the start of the third Test between England and West Indies this morning. 

The Met office has issued an amber weather warning for Wales, South West England, East of England, London and the South East, the West Midlands and the East Midlands Thursday.
