Castle Cary, England, United Kingdom Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

Outbreaks of rain arriving from the west during Tuesday morning will turn heavier and more persistent during Tuesday afternoon, accompanied by a strengthening southerly wind with gales developing in places.

20-40 mm is likely fairly widely, with 50-70 mm building up in the wettest spots, these most likely but not exclusively on the south facing slopes of the moors. Rainfall may continue into Wednesday, although details become increasingly low confidence; this warning may be extended tomorrow or a fresh warning issued for early Wednesday should confidence in a wetter scenario increase.

Given recent wet weather, and saturated ground in places, this could lead to flooding in a few spots. More generally, difficult driving conditions are likely for the evening commute in particular, with delays due to slow traffic and the increased possibility of accidents.
