The Met Office forecast for Greater Manchester this week as thunderstorm warning in place

A yellow weather warning is in place for tonight in Greater Manchester - and it's looking 'unsettled' for the rest of the week.

The warning for thunderstorms today is expected to be the last in a series of weather warnings issued last week as mercury levels dip in the region.

Expect a mixture of sunshine and showers for the rest of the week as temperatures dip to the mid to low 20s following last week's hot temperatures.

Nicola Maxey, a spokeswoman for the Met Office, said: "It's an unsettled picture as we get through this week. (Today) is the last thunderstorm warning.

"There were warnings for most of last week. As the temperatures lower, the risk of thunderstorms ease.

Expect sunshine too (MEN)

"Temperatures will be in the mid to low 20s, which is back to what you would expect.

"We have a low pressure system from the west of the UK from Wednesday, which is going to increase the chance of rain and winds.

"There are looking to be some stronger winds as we go through to the second half of the week.

"There's a chance of seeing more rain around, it will probably be fairly light rain."
