There is a yellow thunderstorm warning across much of England for the next 24 hours or so - and an amber warning for London and the South East from midnight tonight for most of the weekend.

Hot weather and thunderstorms can trigger symptoms in those who suffer with lung conditions such as asthma.

If you notice the weather makes your symptoms worse and you are needing to use your inhaler more frequently, please talk to your pharmacist, contact your GP or NHS 111.
