Last updated 21st Feb 2024
Two more weather warnings have been issued as the south is battered by strong winds and heavy rain.
The yellow alerts are in place between 5am and 6pm tomorrow.
Gusts along the coast could reach 70mph.
It's likely to cause flooding, travel disruption and possibly power cuts.
The Met Office said: "A band of heavy, squally rain in expected to move eastwards across England on Thursday with gusts of around 50 mph in a few places very briefly, as well as some hail and thunder.
"However, there is a small chance of a broader swathe of very strong winds affecting southern and eastern England with gusts of 60 to 70 mph, mostly likely close to English Channel and southern North Sea coasts.
"Rain will be heavy at times and perhaps become more prolonged to give 3-6 hours of rain. Most places within the warning area will see 10-15 mm of rainfall, but a few places could see 30-40 mm with this falling onto already saturated ground."
