Met Office warns of heavy rain in southeast England
Heads up if you're in Kent, Sussex, or Surrey: the Met Office has put out a yellow warning for heavy rain from 10pm tonight (Thursday, August 28) until noon tomorrow.
Expect downpours and steady rain that could mess with travel plans and local infrastructure.
Flooding likely; hosepipe bans still on
After a summer of four heatwaves and record highs—topping out at 35.8°C in Faversham—southeast England is now bracing for 10-20mm of rain in just an hour, with coastal spots possibly seeing up to 70mm overnight.
Flooding could slow busses and trains, and hosepipe bans are still on for over a million people in Kent and Sussex despite all this rain.
