The Met Office has issued a new 17-hour yellow weather warning for rain in Northern Ireland from 2am Wednesday until 9pm Wednesday. The news comes in addition to another yellow warning for rain in Southwest England and Wales. This warning runs from 12pm Tuesday until 12pm Wednesday.
The Met Office said: " A spell of heavy and persistent rain is expected to move north across western Britain during Tuesday into early Wednesday. While there is some uncertainty about where the heaviest rain will fall, 20-40 mm of rain is expected fairly widely. A few places may see 50-75 mm of rain during this period: gradually building up in the west following rain on Monday, whilst in parts of the east, falling in shorter periods where heavy showers and thunderstorms become slow-moving."
