Forecasters Warning

Heavy Rain

Affecting: Ireland, south Wales and southwest England

Valid: Until 21:00 Saturday 07th November 2009

This is a Severe Weather Warning issued by Metcheck at 10:17 on Saturday 07th November.

An area of low pressure is currently tracking southeastwards across Ireland and will cross south Wales and southwest England later today

An associated trough and occlusion will bring some very heavy showery bursts of rain across many parts of Ireland this morning, with the risk of hail, thunder and gusty winds which may reach 60mph in exposed places. This area of showery rain and squally conditions will spread to parts of Wales and southwest England this afternoon.

Rainfall totals of up to 1 inch (25mm) may fall in a short period of time, along with some hail.

These conditions will result in hazardous travelling conditions, and some localised flash flooding may occur in areas where the land is saturated after recent rainfall.

This is expected to be the final update to this Severe Weather Warning.
