YELLOW WARNING OF RAIN for southeast England
Updated at 11:29 on Sun 30 Aug Valid from 01:00 on Mon 31 Aug Valid until 17:00 on Mon 31 Aug Further areas of heavy rain or thundery showers are likely to affect parts of southeastern England and East Anglia at times on Bank Holiday Monday. The main risk periods would seem to be before dawn and again during the middle of the day and into the afternoon. The evening should see a slow transition to drier conditions from the west. This update slightly reduces the northwestern extent of the area at risk from thundery downpours, and brings forward the end time of the warning. Given continuing complexities, a further update to the Warning is likely to be issued early on Monday. The public should be aware of the risk of further localised flooding and impacts on holiday activities.
