The Met Office said: “Outbreaks of rain will develop on Tuesday afternoon and continue into Wednesday morning.

“The rain will be heavy at times, especially on hills.

“Many places will see 15 to 25mm of rainfall with some places perhaps seeing 30 to 40 mm. This rain falling onto already very wet ground will likely lead to some localised flooding.”

The heavy rain is expected to continue until 9am tomorrow.
