Once more there are numerous flood warnings over the UK. Heavy rain on Tuesday has left river levels high, a lot of surface water and there are also coastal flood warnings for NW England and SW Scotland midweek. Today and through the week, more and more frontal systems race in from the Atlantic bringing more wet weather and flood warnings.

This morning, we have a warm front bringing rain to southern Scotland, N.England and N.Ireland. Temperatures over N.Ireland and Scotland are around 5C and for much of England and Wales still very mild at 11 or 12C.

A blustery start to Wednesday for England, Wales and through the Irish Sea. As the low pressure centre moves across the UK today the fresh SW winds will veer to the West and ease a bit. The main frontal band will drift SE, allowing the cooler air into N.England and NW Wales. Temperatures here will fall to 7C with N.Ireland and Scotland not picking up beyond 6C all day. Other showery bands of rain will give bursts of wet weather over England. Then Pennines are very wet this morning with heavy rain over Yorkshire. In between the showery pulses, there is a lot of cloud but brighter skies appear with sunny spells this afternoon, away from the NW. The frontal band gives wet weather at lunch time to W.Wales and N.England before fading.
