The Met Office are expecting a further period of persistent and locally heavy rain during Monday. The heaviest rain is expected across the northern half of England and north Wales with widespread rainfall amounts of 20 to 30mm and locally 40 to 60mm, along with a risk of up to 75mm over hills. Localised flooding is likely where ground is already saturated and there could be some disruption to transport networks. There is also a risk that rain will turn to snow over northern hills before clearing away to the east. This warning will be updated by 1200 on Sunday 20th January 2008.
