A yellow weather warning is in place for Oxfordshire today as rain may cause ‘flooding and disruption’.
The weather warning covers much of the north east, midlands, London and south east, including Oxfordshire.
Many areas will see 15-25mm of rain with up to 40 mm in a few places, leading to some flooding and disruption.
However, there is a small chance that this rain will be especially intense in a few places with 50-70 mm possible and more significant disruption where this occurs.
What to expect
- There is a chance that homes and businesses could be flooded, causing damage to some buildings
- Bus and train services probably affected with journey times taking longer and the chance of cancellations
- Spray and flooding on roads probably making journey times longer with some difficult driving conditions and the chance of road closures
- There is a small chance that some communities will become cut off by flooded roads
- There is a slight chance of power cuts and loss of other services to some homes and businesses
The warning is in place from Tuesday at 6am to midnight.
