"What you should expect is some homes and businesses may be flooded, causing damage to some buildings, and delays or cancellations to train and bus services are possible.

"You should also expect potentially difficult driving conditions, some road closures and some communities cut off by flooded roads. Power cuts and loss of other services to some homes and businesses is also possible."
