Accumulations of 30 mm are expected widely across the warning area with 40 to 60 mm falling over hills. Rain will clear from the west during Tuesday afternoon. What Should I Do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary.
