Met Office Chief Meteorologist Matthew Lehnert said: "Bands of rain associated with this low-pressure will be heavy in places and brings with it the potential for some flooding and travel disruption. The short-term focus for the rainfall is in the south and east later this evening and tomorrow morning.
"15-25mm is likely to fall quite widely, with in excess of 40mm possible in a few places over a 12-hour period. Coupled with this system are some strong winds, with gusts of around 50mph possible along coasts.
"The heaviest rain will gradually move north overnight [on Wednesday] and into Thursday, with further warnings issued. The high ground in the east of Scotland could see between 50 and 70mm of rain, with in excess of 100mm possible across the hill of Angus and Aberdeenshire."
Temperatures will continue to drop through this week back towards the average for the time of year. With the strong winds and rain, it will feel much cooler than the unseasonably mild conditions seen in recent days.
