The Met office have issued a Yellow weather warning for Monday Morning.

A Yellow weather warning issued by the Met office for the morning of 13th October 2014 could lead to surface flooding problems in parts of the south east, south west and east of England.

An area of low pressure moving north from France will bring a combination of persistent heavy rain, and strong winds blowing from the northeast, with gusts in excess of 40 mph.

The Environment agency warn that these strong winds are likely to blow a lot of leaves of trees, potentially blocking drains in places. This, in combination with persistent heavy rain, could lead to surface flooding.

Areas most likely to be affected are the south west of England, the south east of England, London, and East Anglia.

15 to 25 mm of rain will fall in many parts of the warning area, with a few places likely to catch in excess of 40 mm, most likely over parts of southwest England and the West Country and also where showers line up into bands across east and southeast England.
