BRITS are braced for more travel chaos and flooding after the Met Office issued yellow weather warnings for heavy rain.
A glorious weekend of sunshine for many in the UK came to an end as wet and windy conditions took over yesterday.
And there is likely to be more soggy weather on the cards today with transport disruption and possible flooding likely, say forecasters.
The Met Office has issued three yellow warnings for rain coming into force today.
The first weather warning affects the southwestern region of England.
Exeter, Plymouth and Truro have all been warned of heavy rain today.
It comes into force at 8am today and will last til 11.59pm tonight.
Met Office forecasters warn that flooding of a few homes and business is possible.
Meteorologists also added that spray and flooding on roads are likely to make journey times longer.
The second weather warning for heavy rain covers Swansea and Cardiff in Wales.
It comes into play from 8am and will last til just before midnight.
Lastly, parts of Northern Ireland are also being affected by a yellow warning.
Spells of rain, heaviest across eastern areas, will push northeast across much of Northern Ireland on Monday and should clear on Tuesday morning, say meteorologists.
The warning comes into force at midday today and will end at 6am tomorrow.
Met Office forecasters have said that a band of rain will spread into southern and western parts of the UK today.
There will also likely be some showers across northern Scotland.
Temperatures will drop closer back to the average as the week continues after the hot conditions this weekend.
But it will still be largely pleasant with London, Birmingham and Manchester expected to see temperatures around 18-19C.
A Met Office forecaster said: “Monday’s rain will spread, with further rain and heavy showers for Tuesday and Wednesday.
“Drier, more settled conditions will probably become established for a time.
“Above average temperatures are more likely than below, although unsettled conditions are likely to return again.”
