Met Office issues East of England yellow weather warning - BBC

Flood sign in water

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for rain that covers the entire East of England.

It said disruption was expected due to rain forecast in Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk, Northamptonshire and Suffolk.

The warning is in place between 15:00 GMT on Saturday and 18:00 on Sunday.

Flooding to "a few homes and businesses is likely", and spray and rain fall on roads could cause some delays, it said.

The warning applies to all of England.

"An area of persistent and occasionally heavy rain is expected to move from west to east across the warning area during Saturday and Sunday, falling on already saturated ground," it added.

Flooded road

The Met Office asked people to check if their property was at risk of flooding and to check road conditions, as "spray and flooding on roads" could increase journey times.

Some interruption to power supplies was likely, it added.

It recommended people kept up to date with the weather forecast in their area.
