If you were hoping for a dry lead-up to Easter, you might want to grab your umbrella. The Met Office has issued a yellow rain warning covering a big chunk of the UK, with heavy downpours hitting parts of the South West, Wales, the West Midlands, and areas along the north-west border.
The warning kicked in at midday on Tuesday and is expected to last through to the same time on Wednesday. And it’s already made a splash — Whitechurch in west Wales recorded a whopping 50.2mm of rain on Tuesday alone. The Met Office reckons some spots under the warning could see as much as 75mm before it’s all over.
