Danger to life warning as torrential rain sweeps in
The Independent
|November 30, 2025
The Met Office has issued an amber “danger to life” weather warning for flooding as heavy rain lashes the UK.
The forecaster said the worst of the weather will be in south Wales from late today to tomorrow night, with 60 to 80mm of rainfall in some areas, and flooding likely.
The alert warns of travel disruption and power cuts for some and says fast-flowing or deep floodwater is possible, which may cause a danger to life.
It follows several yellow weather warnings over the weekend, with rain and ice expected to hit areas in East Midlands, northeast England, northwest England, West Midlands, and Yorkshire & Humber.
