A number of weather warnings have been issued as wet weather continues over the coming days for many, before conditions turn colder later in the week.

Rain is moving northeast across England and Wales today, becoming heavy and potentially disruptive across parts of northern England tomorrow.

There will also be further areas of rain, with the chance of thunderstorms and strong winds at times in southern half of the UK later on Thursday the 26th.

The rain clears during Friday leaving a quieter but much colder interlude on Saturday the 28th, before a deep low pressure system approaches from the west on Sunday the 29th.

There is also a yellow national severe weather warning for rain on Thursday the 26th and Friday the 27th across parts of England and Wales.

Met Office Chief Meteorologist Paul Gundersen said: “With the rain today and tomorrow potentially falling on already saturated ground a number of warnings for rain have been issued outlining the increased risks for potential impacts.”

Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Brent Walker said: “Things will be turning decidedly cooler into the weekend, with frost likely for much of the UK overnight on Friday and a more autumnal feel to daytime temperatures."

“A north-westerly flow of air is developing, bringing cooler Arctic air over the UK and dropping temperatures into the weekend before the next low pressure system pushes across the country from the North Atlantic.

"This will bring the potential for some very wet and windy weather late on Sunday and into the start of next week, though there is much detail to be determined on the exact conditions so stay up to date with the latest forecast.”
