Huge 56 flood warnings and alerts across UK as 80mm of rain to batter country today

Monday looks set to be another wet and windy day for many, particularly across South Yorkshire and Humberside, and so the Environment Agency has dozens of flood warnings in place

More than 50 flood warnings - and dozens more flood alerts - have been issued by the Environment Agency today as two weather warnings remain place.

As up to 80mm of rain is expected across parts of Yorkshire throughout today, the Met Office has two concurrent weather warnings for rain in place, and says flooding is expected.

Following this, the Environment Agency has taken swift action too, confirming 56 flood warnings are in place. The majority of these are for waterways across the Midlands and the Southwest of England, both of which were battered by rain across the miserable last weeknd of September.

Nearly 30mm of rain fell in Cardinham, Cornwall, on Sunday, the Met Office says. This equates to around half of an average September rainfall tally. Approximately 23mm of rain lashed across Pembrokeshire in south Wales on Sunday.

All of the flood warnings concern areas across England but Natural Resources Wales told us it has six less severe flood alerts in place. These are for waterways across north Wales, notably the River Alyn and its catchments.

In England, it is feared the River Great Ouse will burst its banks in several locations in and near Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, which also suffered flooding last week. There is concern for the River Ivel in nearby Bedfordshire as water levels are, according to the Environment Agency, "high and responsive to further rainfall".

The River Cherwell is likely to burst its banks in Oxfordshire, while several points along the River Axe in Devon are subject to flood warnings today. The Environment Agency says anyone living near the following points should "act now" and prepare to minimise the impact of flooding.
