Heavy rains and strong winds will continue to lash the UK over the next 10 days and the recent mild weather could just turn a little colder, forecasters predict.
The Met Office has issued a number of severe weather warnings for the central, Tayside and Fife area, south-west Scotland, Lothian, Strathclyde and borders and south-west England as well as Wales.
Gareth Harvey, a forecaster with MeteoGroup, said: “We are expecting heavy rains and gales over the next 10 days or so. The weather pattern is very mobile and it is likely to stay unsettled.
“Tomorrow and Thursday see some drier weather but the rain is likely to be relentless, and as there has been quite a lot of rain in recent weeks we might start to see some localised flooding.
“There is also a suggestion that it might turn a little colder and drier towards the end of the month.”
Dan Williams of the Met Office said: “It looks unsettled into the weekend and indeed into the start of next week as well.”
