Expect heavy rain overnight into early Thursday, potentially leading to travel disruptions and flooding.

A heavy and continuous rainfall expected late Wednesday into Thursday morning could result in 15-25 mm of rain in some areas. Due to already wet ground conditions, there is a potential risk of flooding which may lead to disruptions in transportation. It is advisable to assess the flood risk to your property and, if necessary, create a flood plan and have an emergency flood kit ready. Stay informed about weather warnings that could change rapidly and check road, bus, and train conditions before traveling to avoid delays. Keep updated on local weather forecasts in case of any changes in weather conditions.

What To EXPECT
