Get ready for some heavy rain hitting parts of England and Wales! ☔️ While the exact areas most affected are still being determined, the Midlands, northeast England, and east Wales seem to be in the line of fire. The forecast predicts that rainfall could be significant across the entire warning area, with some areas potentially seeing 30-50 mm of rain in just six hours! 🤯 Even more intense rain is possible, with some spots potentially getting 80-100 mm in 12 to 24 hours.
This is a lot of rain! 😱 And it’s important to be prepared. Make sure your property is safe from flooding by creating a flood plan and putting together an emergency flood kit. The last thing you want is to get caught off guard!
Staying Safe on the Road
If you need to travel, be sure to check road conditions before heading out. Bus and train timetables might also be impacted by the downpour. If you notice any delays or changes in your usual commute, be sure to adjust your travel plans accordingly.
Power Cuts: Be Ready!
Power cuts are another possibility during heavy rain. To be safe, gather some essential items like flashlights, batteries, and a portable phone charger. It’s always better to be prepared than caught in the dark!
Keeping Up with the Weather

Brace Yourself for Heavy Rain! 🌧️
The Met Office is warning us to be prepared for another heavy rain event on Sunday. The warning zone has expanded to include central and southeast England!
The rain is expected to be widespread, but east Wales and west-central England are looking at the most intense rain. Some areas could see 40-70 mm of rain in just 2-3 hours! That’s a lot of water in a short amount of time! 😨
Southwest England will likely see heavy rain during the early hours of Sunday, but it’s expected to transition to slow-moving, heavy, and possibly thundery downpours during the day. The heavy rain will push north and west, affecting northern and eastern parts of the warning area throughout the rest of Sunday.
Staying Safe on the Road
As with the previous warning, it’s crucial to check road conditions before traveling. Bus and train timetables might also be disrupted, so make sure to adjust your travel plans if necessary.
Power Cuts: Be Ready!
To avoid being caught off guard by a power outage, gather some essential items like flashlights, batteries, and a portable phone charger. It’s better to be prepared and safe than sorry!
