Parts of the UK will be under a weather warning this weekend as torrential rain marks a damp beginning to the month.
A sweeping low pressure system coming in from the Atlantic is set to bring high winds, rain and some thunderstorms over the next few days, with weather radar showing 40mm of rain falling per hour in some parts.
Precipitation is expected to be especially heavy in Northern Ireland and the western coast of Scotland, where a yellow warning for rain will be in effect for an entire 24 hours on Saturday.
