THE Met Office has issued an amber severe weather warning for heavy rain tomorrow.
The agency say areas of heavy, thundery showers will develop over England and Wales tonight before moving northwards tomorrow.
Torrential downpours are likely and The Environment Agency is also advising communities across the south east of England to prepare for an increased risk of surface water flooding.
Operations manager Barry Russell said: “We are doing all we can to prepare for the heavy rainfall which is expected over the weekend, which increases the risk of surface water flooding.
"The intense nature of the rainfall which causes surface water flooding makes it very difficult to accurately predict where it will occur, so I would urge people to check local weather forecasts and the gov.uk website for information on a regular basis.”
