Yellow weather warning issued south and south-western England on Saturday.
The Met Office has warned of flooding and disruption to transport as it announced a yellow weather notice for heavy rain across the south and south west of England.
It comes after Storm Ciaran battered the south coast and the Channel Islands with heavy rain and gusts of up to 100mph on Thursday, leaving nearly 150,000 homes without power. The Met Office also warned that flooding of homes and businesses is possible and large waves could lead to dangerous conditions along the English Channel coastline.
“A yellow warning for rain is in place for much of southern England, to cover the initial rain and the subsequent showers, which will be heavy and thundery in places.Chief forecaster Frank Saunders said: “After the events of this week, the forecast is moving into a period of fairly typical autumnal weather, with breezy conditions and spells of rain and showers, interspersed with some clearer and brighter periods.
Despite conditions improving, rail services remained disrupted on Friday as the UK felt the after-effects of Storm Ciaran.
