The Met Office has issued a yellow rain warning for parts of south and south-east London, as well as Kent, Sussex, the Isle of Wight, a small area around Plymouth in Devon, and across coastal areas of Hampshire and Weymouth. The alert is in place from 10pm on Tuesday until midday on Wednesday.

The environment secretary Steve Reed also warned more flooding is “likely” this week, although the impact “should be less severe” after at least two people died during the storm. Two yellow weather warnings for potentially heavy rain will be in place in parts of London,
