Yellow Heavy Rain Warning Issued for London: Hourly Weather Forecast
Londoners are being advised to brace themselves for a day of significant rainfall as a yellow weather warning remains in effect until Friday morning. The Met Office has forecasted heavy rain to begin at 5 am today (Thursday) and persist until 10 am on Friday (September 27). This anticipated downpour has the potential to cause flooding and major disruptions to travel across the city.
Precautionary measures are being stressed by authorities to ensure the safety of residents in London. The deteriorating weather conditions throughout the day are expected to exacerbate the situation. The Met Office has warned of possible power outages, localized flooding, and disruptions to bus and train services. The treacherous road conditions could even lead to road closures in certain areas.
Roads may become impassable due to flooding, with the added risk of fast-moving or deep water posing a serious hazard. While not all regions will experience the most severe impacts, heavy rain is likely to affect large parts of England and Wales from tonight into Friday morning. Some areas might receive as much as 20-30mm of rain within a few hours, with totals potentially reaching 40-60mm over a 4–6-hour period.
