UK weather: Met Office forecasts further heavy rain<\/h3>\n

Hurricane Nigel’s wrath has already been mapped by the Met Office – but one meteorologist has predicted a fresh wave of chaos for Britain next week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Met Office has placed 16 local authority areas in south western Scotland under a yellow weather warning on Sunday from 4am until midnight.<\/p>\n

It warns of ‘danger to life’, flash flooding and potential power cuts – with many places expected to be drenched in 30 to 50mm of rain by the day’s end.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Whilst some places, most likely south-west facing hills, could see 80-120mm over the course of 24-36 hours,” the Met Office added.<\/p>\n

“It will also become increasingly windy through Sunday, with gusts of 50-60mph on coasts and over high ground. This could exacerbate flooding with leaves being blown from trees to potentially block drains and gullies.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, according to Jim Dale from British Weather Services, these areas – along with western coastlines in Wales, Devon, Dorset, Cornwall and Somerset, may receive an additional battering from Monday to Wednesday.<\/p>\n

This is thanks to the remnants of Hurricane Nigel, which has now downgraded to an ex-tropical storm, hanging around “for a week”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite the fact it is not of hurricane strength, it has still been bringing torrential downpours to Britain this week, along with thunderstorms across central and southern areas.<\/p>\n

And, Mr Dale predicts it won’t give up until at least the middle of next week.<\/p>\n

He said: “Ex-tropical storm Nigel could bring out his off-spring which could bring heavy rain to the south-west and Wales. It may or may not materialise, but it could bring significant rain before a settled period.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But, with the land and sea temperatures still warm from a late-September heatwave, there’s every chance, that, once this storm subsides the UK could be in for some autumnal heat.<\/p>\n

Mr Dale added: “We could have significant rain before an Indian summer, once you see the models agreeing with each other then I will be pretty sure we are going to see it.”<\/p>\n

Weather maps show a cold plume drifting over northern England, Scotland and even the tip of Northern Ireland this weekend, seeing the mercury dip in the process.<\/p>\n

But, this is set to be short-lived, as it soon dissipates with higher pressure trying to dominate. While temperatures may not be struggling so much from Monday – some areas may endure persistent downpours.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Maps indicate a wall of rain may hit the western parts of the UK by 6am on Tuesday, before the eye of the storm pushes eastwards across Manchester.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But Wednesday looks to be the worst of them all, with models turning red over south-west England in its entirety, along with much of Wales. This predicts 5mm of rainfall per hour.<\/p>\n

The Met Office outlook from Sunday through to Tuesday adds: “Windy on Sunday with rain, locally heavy, especially in the northwest. Risk of coastal gales for some. Less windy on Monday and brighter. Sunshine and showers on Tuesday. Turning warmer.”<\/p>\n
