Water was seen pouring through the ceiling of a Costco store in Greater Manchester on Monday evening (June 12) as a thunderstorm battered the region.
Heavy rain, thunder and lightning suddenly hit parts of Greater Manchester with roads becoming flooded and trees falling down in what was described as 'end of the world weather.'
Video footage taken from the Costco Warehouse on Barton Dock Road, Trafford Park on Monday show the moment water began pouring through the roof as shoppers watched on.

Huge puddles could be seen forming on the floor as members of the store whipped out their phones to begin filming, with others seen attempting to dodge the falling water.
One shopper told the Manchester Evening News the incident unfolded at around 7pm.
Roads also flooded elsewhere on Monday, including in Salford, as video footage showed the moment drivers waded through waterlogged following the sudden heavy downpour.
The hot weather also gave way to the rain, thunder and lightning just as Manchester City's treble winning parade was getting underway, leaving thousands soaked.
The event was delayed for more than an hour with organisers concerned about thunder, with the stage show also halted due to concerns over possible lightning.
The M.E.N. has contacted Costco for comment.
