There is still some uncertainty regarding which areas will be affected by the heaviest rain, but at this stage parts of the Midlands, northeast England and east Wales look most likely to see the greatest accumulations. However, anywhere within the warning area could have impactful rainfall through the course of Monday.

There is potential that 30-50 mm could develop in any part of the warning area, much of which could fall in six hours or less. Some locations could see 80-100 mm over the course of 12 to 24 hours.

The weather alert affects Wrexham, Flintshire, Denbighshire and several northern coastal areas of Wales.
