The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning as a substantial band of rain moves across the UK, threatening to bring flooding, thunderstorms, and lightning. The warning is in effect from 3 PM today until 9 AM on Tuesday for the northwest of England, including parts of Merseyside, Wales, and the South West of England.
According to the Met Office, much of the country can expect outbreaks of rain today, with some areas experiencing heavy and thundery downpours. These conditions could lead to localized flooding, slower travel times, and a small chance that homes and businesses may be flooded. The heavy rain may also be accompanied by lightning, adding to the hazards.
