The Met Office said heavy rain could cause travel disruption, difficult driving conditions and possibly impact outdoor plans.

Forecasters warned that a developing area of low pressure would move across southern and central parts of the UK today.

This will bring “bands of heavy rain and gusty winds”, particularly across Wales, the Midlands and southern England.

There is potential for 20-30mm of rain to fall across England and Wales, with 50mm possible in places.

On high ground, there is a low chance of between 60mm and 80mm of rain falling.
