The UK prepares for the impact of Storm Jorge
Storm Jorge will hit the UK today with winds up to 70mph – and forecasters are warning the heavy rain is “not good news” for flood-hit areas.
A series of yellow warnings for wind and rain cover most of Wales and northwest England between now and Sunday morning – and the Met Office says 50mm to 80mm of rain is possible today.
The British Met Office chief meteorologist Paul Gundersen said the Republic of Ireland would be hit hardest by the wind.
