The Met Office has issued a yellow thunderstorm warning for the Nairn area tomorrow.
It covers the period from 4am until 11.59pm and the previous warning that was in place has been extended northwards to include the town.
A spokesman said: "Heavy showers are now expected more widely over Scotland and trimmed northwards away from parts of Wales and the Midlands where impactful showers now look less likely.
"Heavy showers are expected across much of the UK on Friday. Within the warning area these showers and thunderstorms will be slow-moving and may cause localised surface water impacts.
"Rainfall totals will vary considerably and not all locations will be affected by the heaviest showers. However, where the showers do occur there is potential for 20-30 mm of rain in a short space of time and during the course of the day there is a chance that some places could see as much as 80-100 mm build up."

• What to expect: There is a small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater; spray and sudden flooding could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures; where flooding or lightning strikes occur, there is a chance of delays and some cancellations to train and bus services.
