The Met Office has issued 16-hour weather warnings for Storm Babet-ravaged Britain, with another day of flooding on the horizon for thousands of people.<\/p>\n
A new yellow weather warning has told people to expect further flooding between 6pm today (Tuesday, October 24) and 10am tomorrow.<\/p>\n
The warning covers dozens of areas for 16 hours, including London, where rain will fall “heavy at times” and “cause some flooding and disruption in a few places”.<\/p>\n
The warning states: “Scattered showers will become more frequent and increasingly organised into a longer spell of rain through Tuesday evening before gradually clearing eastward during Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
“15 to 25mm of rain is expected fairly widely but there is a chance that 50 to 60mm could fall in a few places; these higher accumulations more likely across east Hampshire, Sussex, Surrey and west Kent.”<\/p>\n
The warning states that the primary risks from the coming storms are to transport, especially rail and road services.<\/p>\n
The Met Office advises that journey times on buses and trains will likely take longer during the warning hours, and spray and flooding may affect travel elsewhere.<\/p>\n
Businesses and homes may also suffer from flooding, with the ground already saturated from nearly a week’s worth of rain prompted by Storm Babet.<\/p>\n
Dozens of areas are currently included in the warning, primarily in the southeast, especially on the coast.<\/p>\n
