Weather warnings for rain and wind in place in Norfolk
A wet and windy start to the new year is expected for many in Norfolk today
A windy start to the new year is expected for many in Norfolk today, with heavy rain also forecast for parts of the county.
The Met Office yellow weather warnings for rain and wind are in place until 9pm today (Tuesday).
The forecaster says the heaviest rain is "more likely" across parts of Wales, the Midlands towards eastern England and Yorkshire while gusts could reach 60mph in coastal areas or 40 to 50mph elsewhere.
It's also warned some travel disruption is likely as the heavy rain is set to fall on ground that is already saturated after recent wet weather.
Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey said: "At the moment it does look like a lot of that rain will push across the vast majority of England and Wales, turning widely wet once again throughout Tuesday."
There will also be a north-south contrast in temperatures ranging from between 8C to 13C but it will feel chillier in the wind and rain.
Rain
A yellow weather warning for rain is in place in the north of the county until 9pm.
It states: "Over the warning period, 15 to 30mm rain is likely to fall fairly widely, with a few places seeing 35 to 50mm.
"The worst of the rain should clear southwestern areas of England and South Wales by around the middle of Tuesday but could last into the evening across the north-east of the warning area. Strong winds will affect parts of the area."
