⛈️ Merseyside is set to be battered by thunderstorms once again, with adverse weather conditions expected this weekend. Across the North West, the Met Office warns of 'unsettled' conditions throughout the weekend, with heavy showers on Saturday and some 'locally torrential downpours and thunderstorms.'

🅿️ Liverpool Council has taken another major step towards ending free parking in the city centre after 6 pm. A consultation has been launched to extend parking charges from 7 am to 11 pm and increase the tariff by 10p per half hour. The consultation will run for four weeks until 10 August.
