The Met Office has issued weather warnings as the Dutch weather service has named Storm Conall while Brits continue to reel from flooding brought by Storm Bert.
The Met Office said the storm will hit southern England tonight, bringing with it heavy rain. Storm Conall will then move over to the Netherlands and is is expected to have a more severe impact on the country on Wednesday and Thursday.
Forecasters said Kent, the Isle of Wight and Sussex could be blighted the most by rain and the Met Office has put in a yellow warning from 10pm to 12pm tomorrow. The rain warning covers parts of the South West, particularly around Plymouth, and the south coast and up into south east London and coastal Essex.
The weather warnings said bus and train services would “probably” be affected with delays expected. Flooding on the roads and a few homes is also “likely.”
Forecasters said as much as 40mm of rain could fall in some areas, although there is a “lower chance” of 50mm falling in some areas. It comes just days after Storm Bert left hundreds of homes flooded, turned roads into rivers and saw winds of more than 80mph.
The latest storm, called Conall, is the third of the season and was named by the Dutch Weather Service, which along with the Met Office and Met Eireann in Ireland name storms so that the communication of severe weather is easier.
