Homes and businesses are likely to be flooded in south-west England, the Met Office has warned, as Storm Chandra brings torrential rain and high winds to parts of the UK on Monday night and Tuesday.

Forecasters said travel disruption was likely in some areas and there could be significant falls of snow across higher ground in parts of northern England and Scotland. Several weather warnings have been issued, including amber ones for south-west England and the eastern coast of Northern Ireland for rain and wind respectively.
