Southport, England, United Kingdom Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

Information on update: The warning area has been extended in places. An area of heavy rain will move steadily east across the area during Monday. Whilst the rain may ease for a time during the afternoon across Cumbria, another pulse of heavy rain is possible here during the evening and overnight, with all rain eventually clearing early Tuesday morning.

20-40 mm of rain is likely to fall quite widely across the warning area, but higher ground could see 50-80 mm, with perhaps nearer 100-120 mm in a few places over the Cumbrian fells.    

Strong south to southwesterly winds will also accompany the heavy rain, with gales possible around coasts and over high ground.
