It's the first day of Autumn today and it's not messing about... 🌧️ 😭

We hope you enjoyed the weekend’s scorching sunshine because it looks as though Autumn is about to arrive with a bang.

The downpour is ‘loosely’ linked to Hurricane Humberto, which hit the edge of Bermuda and is travelling across the Atlantic towards the UK today. Met Office meterologist Luke Miall said: ‘We could see 20mm to 40 mm of rain within nine hours and possibly the worst case scenario is of 70mm in some spots.’

Bus and train journeys could take longer, there could be flooding on roads, and homes and businesses could also be drenched, forecasters have warned.
