Met Office: Yellow warning of heavy rain in the north-east

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for Monday where a large area of heavy rain will continue northwards across northern England and Scotland, clearing from the south as the morning progresses.

Whilst isolated thunder is possible at first, heavy rain is likely to be the main hazard with 15-25 mm falling widely in three hours and 40-60 mm possible in a few places.

One or two locations could see 80 mm or more but this is a very low likelihood for any given spot.

Some flooding and disruption is possible as a result.
