Read our privacy policy The Met Office has issued fresh weather warnings heading into next week as Storm Ciarán is set to sweep across the UK later this week. Met office deputy chief meteorologist, Chris Almond, said: “Heavy and persistent rain will fall onto already saturated ground bringing a risk of further impacts such as flooding in areas that are already struggling to clean up from the heavy rainfall we have seen over the last week or so.” It comes as new yellow weather warnings were issued today for rain in parts of southern and southeast England on Wednesday for the entirety of southern England, London, south Wales and the West Midlands. The Met Office also warned of delays or cancellations to train and bus services in areas affected by the yellow weather warnings. Met Office deputy chief meteorologist Tony Wardle said: “While the start of next week will see this unsettled theme to the weather continue, there’s increasing confidence of a deep area of low pressure influencing the UK’s weather from the west, bringing a more concerted period of wet and windy weather.
