The Met Office has warned of “heavy and potentially disruptive” rain sweeping across parts of northern England tomorrow while southern areas will have a chance of thunderstorms and strong winds. Met Office Chief Meteorologist Paul Gundersen said: “With the rain today and tomorrow potentially falling on already saturated ground a number of warnings for rain have been issued outlining the increased risks for potential impacts.” “The highest rainfall totals are likely across the Pennines and North York Moors where 80-100mm could accumulate on Thursday, while others within the warning area could see 20-30mm quite widely. More severe weather warnings may be issued over the coming days so it’s important to check the latest forecast for your area” The yellow warnings indicate a slight chance of power cuts, a small chance that homes and businesses could become flooded, as well as the possibility of travel disruption, the Met Office said. open image in gallery A car sits in floodwater at the Billing Aquadrome holiday park, Northamptonshire, where firefighters and police worked until late on Tuesday night as flooding forced 43 residents to evacuate Teams used 4×4 vehicles and PPE to help 43 people away from areas that were affected by the rising flood water while a “very limited” number of people remain at the site, the fire service added.
