After an unsettled weekend, further wet and windy conditions are expected this coming week, with further impacts expected.
Yellow warnings for rain and wind have been issued for late Monday into Tuesday across parts of the southern and central England, South Wales, north west England and Scotland as a deep area of low pressure brings disruption.
After a showery start on Monday, an area of low pressure approaching from the North Atlantic will bring heavy rain and strong winds from late Monday into Tuesday. Yellow warnings for rain and wind are in place for parts of Wales, southern and southwest England, northern England, and western Scotland.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Dan Holley said, “Whilst there is some uncertainty as to the exact track and intensity of the area of low pressure as it passes close to western Scotland later on Tuesday, many parts of the UK are likely to see spells of rain which, given saturated ground, could lead to flooding and delays to road and rail travel.
“In addition, strong winds are expected, particularly in northern and western areas. We are closely monitoring developments and may issue updates to the warnings as the situation evolves.”
The outlook for much of December remains unsettled, with further areas of low pressure expected to bring more wet and windy weather. It is too early to provide details for Christmas, but updates will be posted across Met Office channels as we get closer to the time.
