An amber warning for rain has been issued by the Met Office, with an ongoing chance of flooding and travel disruption for many. Low-pressure is gradually moving north over the next couple of days, bringing heavy rain and gusty winds at times.
Areas to the south of the UK have already seen some surface water flooding impacts, but rainfall totals are expected to be higher further north, with in excess of 100 mm of rain possible over a 24-hour period within the amber warning area, which covers parts of eastern Scotland. The amber warning comes into force from early Friday morning through to the evening.
