The Met Office has issued an amber weather warning for thunderstorms across Maidenhead, Windsor and Slough this weekend.
The warning is in place from 4am on Saturday until 11am on Sunday and covers large parts of the South East of England.
Between 20mm and 40mm of rain could fall within an hour and lead to surface water flooding, the UK’s national weather service added.
Met Office chief meteorologist Andy Page said: “Intense rainfall will impact parts of the UK as thunderstorms move in from France.
“A range of severe weather warnings have been added, including an Amber warning covering South East England and London.
“The intense rainfall could lead to surface water flooding as well as frequent lightning and hail too.
“The situation is evolving and warnings may be changed or added.”
