Flooding: Heavy rain brings risk across south west, south and midlands - full list of flood warnings and alerts

Storm Eowyn hit northern Ireland and Scotland the hardest, with thousands left without power. But the bad weather is now focused more on the south of the UK, where rain and strong winds have been the subject of yellow warnings for two days now.

Central and southern England and Wales have seen flooding and more is likely to follow, the Met Office said. Part of Devon had almost 34mm of rain on Sunday and 33.5mm fell in Stoke Climsland, Cornwall.

An 83mph gust was recorded in Berry Head, south Devon, and 81mph in Capelcurig, North Wales.

Met Office meteorologist Marco Petagna said: “Things are going to stay unsettled in the next few days. Storm Eowyn has moved off to the north east now, but we’ve got another deep area of low pressure dominating the weather for the next few days, gradually moving across the UK from the west.”

A wet and windy spell arrived in the south west on Sunday morning and was moving across the north of the UK overnight. It will not be as powerful as Storm Eowyn.

Spanish meteorologists have dubbed the low-pressure system Storm Herminia, as the European country will feel the strongest winds.

Another weather front moved in from the south west and pushed north and eastwards over England and Wales during the night. Flooding is likely in parts of England and Wales and weather warnings are in place until Tuesday.

Mr Petagna said: “What we’re seeing in this particular system isn’t that unusual (for this time of year), but it’s a combination of several events we’re getting which is adding to problems.

“We’re getting successive spells of wet and windy weather, which is obviously adding to impacts – obviously people are still recovering from Eowyn, and this wind and rain is hampering those efforts. Several events now of heavy rain is increasing the risk of flooding as well. We don’t need much more rain now to cause further flooding problems with the ground being so saturated.”

Brighter spells will appear occasionally on Monday but the day will largely bring showers that merge into longer spells of rain. Winds will slowly become less of a feature, Mr Petagna added.

Persistent rain is forecast to return on Wednesday across the far south of the UK. A yellow wind warning runs until 7am on Monday and covers large parts of southern England, the north west, the West Midlands and Yorkshire.

Gusts of 55-65mph are possible overnight and there is a small chance they could reach 80mph, the Met Office said.

This could cause disruption to transport and damage to buildings such as tiles coming off roofs. Another yellow warning for strong and gusty winds is in place from 6am on Monday to the same time on Tuesday in Wales and southern parts of England.

A yellow warning for periods of heavy rain that could cause some flooding of roads and properties had been issued for the West Midlands and most of Wales until 11.59pm on Monday.

The Met Office expects 20mm to 40mm to fall quite widely and 50mm to 70mm on higher ground. Another warning for heavy rain, thundery showers and localised flooding was active for parts of Wales and central, southern and northern England until 6am on Monday. Forecasters said 10mm to 20mm of rain will fall quite widely, nearing 30mm to 50mm at higher altitude.

Further heavy rain on Sunday evening could bring it up to 80mm in a few places.

“Given recent heavy rain, this extra rainfall could lead to some local surface water and river flooding,” the Met Office said.

Ben Lukey, a flood duty manager at the Environment Agency, said: “Spells of heavy rain mean surface water and river flooding is possible across parts of England on Sunday, overnight into Monday. Although not expected, impacts could include localised flooding from watercourses, drains, channels and flooding from overland flow.”

He warned people not to drive through flood water as 30cm of flowing water is enough to float a car.
