🌧️🌬️ Brace yourselves, folks! A yellow weather warning is in effect as heavy rain and blustery winds hit south-west England and much of South Wales until 2pm on Wednesday. This means travel disruptions with possible floods and power outages, so plan your journey accordingly!
🌈 And did you see it? The Northern Lights made a rare appearance across the UK and Ireland on Monday night. Sky watchers from north-east Scotland to West Cork in Ireland were treated to nature’s dazzling display. While conditions might get cloudier tonight, if you’re in northern Scotland or northern England, you could still catch a glimpse!
But back to the current weather: It’s a soggy start for those on the school run after the summer holidays. Meteorologist Rebekah Hicks warns of heavy rain and thunderstorms, especially in the south. Expect gusts of wind, hail, and a potential splash of chaos on your morning commute. 🌧️⛈️
Rain will gradually clear from the South West during Wednesday afternoon, giving way to more isolated showers. Coastal areas, especially along the English Channel, should brace for gales. By the end of the week, while southern parts will enjoy sunnier spells, the North West isn’t as lucky, staying wet and windy with a chance of gusty coastal conditions. 🌊
