Yellow rain warning in force across Milton Keynes with further flooding expected

    Stormy weather is set to continue across Milton Keynes with a rain warning in force until Friday morning.

    The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning across parts of the UK, including Milton Keynes.

    The warning is in place from 12pm today (Thursday 4 January) until 3am tomorrow (Friday 5 January).

    The Met Office is warning of further flooding and disruption, with more rain forecast.

    Met Office Chief Meteorologist Matthew Lehnert said: “The track of the heaviest rain remains uncertain but there is chance of 20 to 30 mm of rain falling in a 6 to 9 hour period for a portion of the warning area, with a few places seeing as much as 40-50 mm.  

    “Much of this rain is falling on already wet ground and therefore, impacts are more likely.  Meanwhile, a stalled weather front will continue to bring rain and showers across the northeast.” 

    Colder weather is then forecast as the rain passes, with the UK Health Security Agency issuing a cold alert, covering the whole of England valid from 9am 6th January to 12pm 9th January.
