Information on update: The heaviest rain has now cleared from southern parts of the original warning area, which has been shrunk accordingly. An area of rain will continue to affect northwest England, parts of northeast England, parts of the north Midlands and north Wales. Rain will be heavy and persistent in places, particularly over north-facing hills and coasts, before easing during Thursday morning.
Many places will see 30-40 mm of rain, while a few areas may receive 60-80 mm (including what has fallen so far). There is also a chance that a few upland locations, chiefly in the separate Amber warning area, could see much higher totals, in the order of 100-150 mm.
What should I do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit.
Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary.
People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items.
Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area. For further details see https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/warnings-and-advice/uk-warnings
