00:00Hello, very good day to you. Welcome along to this week's Met Office Deep Dive.
00:05Yes, I'm Alex Burkill, presenter and meteorologist here at the Met Office,
00:09and I'm coming to you from our headquarters here in Exeter.
00:12There is a lot going on with the weather, not only in the UK this week, but also around the world.
00:18So I'll be looking at, yes, the unsettled stormy weather that we have at the moment,
00:24as well as what's going on in parts of America, Australia, and also Europe,
00:28because there's some severe hazardous weather in many places as well.
00:33Thank you so much for joining me. Welcome back.
00:34If you've watched these deep dives before, welcome along if this is your first one.
00:39Get those comments coming in, hit the like button, share this with anyone that you think might be interested in it.
00:44But I want to get going because, well, I'm recording this Tuesday afternoon,
00:49and there is a storm hitting parts of the UK.
00:52It has already been very wet and it's already been very windy,
00:56and we've seen some significant snow building up already, all due to Storm Chandra.
01:02So this feature has pushed its way northwards up the western side of Ireland,
01:06and yes, it's bringing some very unsettled stormy weather, and it's led to some significant impacts.
01:12Let's look at the satellite imagery from Monday.
01:15And there is this big swell of cloud, an area of low pressure out in the Atlantic.
01:18But no, no, no, that is not Chandra.
01:20That is actually a different feature that was named Joseph by the Portuguese Met Service.
01:25Some very unsettled weather across parts of Iberia at the moment.
01:29I'll touch on that later on.
01:30But we were more concerned with the feature that developed to the southwest of the UK.
01:35Now, it deepened rapidly, went through explosive cyclogenesis,
01:39so it became really intense as it pushed towards the UK,
01:43strengthened, pushed along by a very strong jet stream.
01:46I think the jet stream is running around 170, 180 miles per hour at the moment,
01:50so it's particularly strong, partly, well, majorly,
01:53as a result of some extreme temperature contrasts currently across the US.
01:58Again, I'll come on to that in a bit, because you'll have no doubt heard
02:00about the severe winter storm that's affecting parts of North America over the weekend.
02:07But this area of low pressure then developed.
02:09Storm Chandra has then pushed its way in.
02:11Let's put the rainfall, the radar on, and actually let's dart back a little bit
02:15and scroll to what happened overnight.
02:18Because as we went through Monday afternoon and evening,
02:22we saw the heavy rain arriving in across parts of Western, particularly southwestern parts.
02:27And then that heavy rain just continued overnight as we went into Tuesday as well.
02:33Now, there was heavy rain across parts of Northern Ireland
02:35and also heavy rain across parts of the southwest in particular.
02:39Some places saw in excess of 100 millimetres.
02:42Some private rain gauges in, also actually some environment agency rain gauges in Devon
02:47recorded over 100 millimetres.
02:49And also some sites, some Met Office sites in Northern Ireland.
02:52Catesbridge recorded 100.8 millimetres, which is a record for that site for the wettest day.
03:00Many sites recorded their wettest January day on record.
03:04Sites across Northern Ireland, parts of the southwest, so Dorset, Devon,
03:08and even further east, some places in Kent, for example, had their wettest January day.
03:12So it was very wet indeed.
03:15And all that wet weather now spilling its way northeastwards.
03:18And worth highlighting, if you're watching this, not long after it gets published through Tuesday afternoon,
03:24there are more showery bursts of rain coming in behind.
03:27And so whilst the heaviest, more persistent rain is now making its way towards the northeast,
03:32across the southwest, let's zoom in, looking at the earlier radar, plenty of heavy showers as well.
03:38So it's not a real respite.
03:40It's not a total letup in that wet weather as all that pushes through.
03:44We've also had some very strong winds in association with Storm Chandra already.
03:48We've seen gusts of around 75, 76 miles per hour around the Isles of Scilly
03:52and other places in exposed areas of the southwest.
03:56And as we go through the rest of today, continuing to see very strong winds affecting parts of Northern Ireland.
04:01We've talked about this in various videos.
04:03If you saw Alex's excellent storm special that went out about Chandra,
04:07you'd have seen him talk about the direction of the wind
04:10and why that's so important for how impactful this feature will be.
04:14Now, often we see our low pressure systems rattle from west to east across the country,
04:19but that's not what happened with Storm Chandra.
04:21No, it went up the northern or up the western side of Ireland.
04:25And it's that track and the position of that deep low that has led to the wind direction
04:29being slightly different to what we're more used to.
04:33And so getting gusts of 70, 75 miles per hour coming in from the south, southeast,
04:37feeding up through the Irish Sea and then battering eastern parts of Northern Ireland.
04:42Well, that's why we had the Amber Warning out.
04:45And that's why there was that significant risk of impacts.
04:49Talking of impacts, I've already gone through some of that rainfall,
04:52but I did just want to show you some images from, well, my neck of the woods.
04:57I'm down here in Devon.
04:58And this is, thank you to Toby Bishop, who is in Tipton, St. John in Devon,
05:03and just shows the River Otter reached its highest levels on record.
05:10And so you can just see how much of an issue it's caused.
05:13Many roads were closed, schools were closed as a result of people just not being able to get around
05:19because of how much rain there's been.
05:22Worth noting that, yes, we had a substantial amount of rain.
05:26Like I said, lots of places having their highest January rainfall day on record.
05:31And some places, Catesbridge, admittedly, that's quite far away from Devon.
05:35But nonetheless, it's wettest day on record.
05:38But, yeah, so a lot of rain anyway.
05:41And this comes off the back of what's felt like relentless rain in parts of the west and southwest
05:46through the last week or so, really.
05:48It's just been so wet recently.
05:51The ground was so very saturated.
05:54And so adding such a substantial amount of rain on top of this very wet ground,
05:59well, it's no wonder that we've seen some significant impacts as a result.
06:03Like I mentioned, we do have an amber warning out for a little while yet.
06:07So do stay aware with the warnings that are across parts of the UK currently.
06:12Also snow and ice and other wind warnings as well.
06:15So hazardous weather to come.
06:18But what happens through the rest of the week?
06:20I'll go through this relatively quickly.
06:22We cover it in our other content as well.
06:24And obviously the 10-day trend will be coming up tomorrow.
06:26I think it's Alex Deacon doing that tomorrow.
06:28So I don't want to tread on his toes too much.
06:31But if we just run through the rest of Tuesday and we have a band of rain,
06:35then that same feature that came up from the southwest,
06:38that clears away mainly towards the northeast.
06:42But it's lingering across parts of eastern, northeastern Scotland as we go through.
06:46For quite a while, actually, there's going to be more wet weather warnings
06:49across northeastern parts of Scotland through the next few days.
06:52Elsewhere, and we have some drier weather following in behind,
06:56with clearer skies as we go through the early hours of Wednesday morning.
07:01And now that then brings another cause for concern in as much as if we look at our weather warnings.
07:10And let's start ahead to Wednesday morning.
07:14And we have ice warnings out across much of the country because we have a very saturated ground,
07:21very wet surfaces.
07:23And then with those clear skies and the winds starting to ease as Chandra clears away,
07:28as the winds ease, we're going to see temperatures dropping quite widely close to,
07:32if not below freezing, rural spots quite likely to drop sub-zero.
07:36And so with that and the really wet ground, perfect ingredients for ice to form.
07:41So you kind of get two setups, really, leading to ice, most likely,
07:47in as much as you either have your frozen surfaces and then rain or snow falling on the frozen surfaces,
07:54or you, in this instance, have your very wet ground and then the temperature's dropping.
07:59And this is what we're going to have in this instance.
08:01So, you know, even if there aren't any showers pushing through at the time overnight,
08:07just because of how much rain has pushed through as a result of Storm Chandra,
08:11we then have the risk of some severe ice in places.
08:14So, yeah, really difficult driving conditions for some of us first thing on Wednesday morning.
08:18Ice warnings out for both much of Northern Ireland and a large chunk of England into Scotland
08:23and also parts of Wales.
08:24Let's just go back to look at the bigger picture and let's put these on.
08:31And so the feature that is Storm Chandra, this low here, sorry, I should have labelled it, but I didn't.
08:36But, yeah, so it's tracking up the western side of Northern Ireland,
08:40and then it's kind of merging and clearing away.
08:44And then Storm Chandra and Joseph kind of interact a little bit.
08:48I believe, actually, that one might be Joseph.
08:51But nonetheless, then it clears away, and then we see that quieter weather developing instead,
08:56allowing for the clearer skies to develop, like I say, bring the risk of ice.
09:01And actually, Wednesday does give us something of a respite, not a total respite,
09:07but it is a quieter day for many places.
09:10If we take a closer look at the details, and let's get the UK up, and let's look at Wednesday.
09:16And, yeah, like I said, rain across the northeast of Scotland lingering for quite a while.
09:21And there will be some showery outbreaks of rain across parts of Northern Ireland,
09:24maybe into parts of Wales and south-southwestern England as well.
09:27But large chunks of the country actually having a fairly decent day,
09:31some decent bright sunny weather after an icy start.
09:35Then if we dart ahead, and again, there could be some ice again around through Thursday morning,
09:41though perhaps a bit more cloud, so less of a risk.
09:43And then Thursday starts on a similar vein to how we got through much of Wednesday, really.
09:48Still that rain lingering across parts of northeast Scotland.
09:51That really just doesn't go away.
09:53And then a lot of drier weather across much of the country,
09:57but then rain starting to push its way in from the southwest across parts of, well,
10:02southwest England into Wales, and then later into Northern Ireland as well as we go through the afternoon.
10:07Now, this rain doesn't look anywhere near as heavy as the wet weather that we saw in association with storm Chandra
10:14or that we're currently seeing.
10:16But nonetheless, we could see, you know, 30, 40 millimetres of rain building up across some parts of the southwest
10:23as we go through Thursday.
10:25And so as a result, we have issued a yellow rain warning.
10:29Now, this is correct at the time of recording.
10:32And it's valid for the whole of the afternoon into the evening on Thursday across, well,
10:36Devon Cornwall into Somerset as well and parts of Dorset.
10:39And that talks of those, you know, modest rainfall totals, but it's because the ground is so wet.
10:47As I mentioned, there's been some severe flooding in parts of the southwest of England at the moment.
10:52And, you know, with some further heavy rain coming through as we go through the latter part of Thursday,
10:59we're likely to see some further issues.
11:02And so in places where they're still recovering from the floods that we have at the moment,
11:07it's not going to make things any better at all.
11:10And now I wish I could say that there are some signs in the near future of a prolonged dry spell,
11:17but really that doesn't look especially likely.
11:21If we let's just continue with the forecast for the rest of the week.
11:26But if we just start to head to Friday and I should let's go, let's go back with the timeline.
11:32And so, yeah, Thursday, that band of rain comes through and then pushes its way northeastwards.
11:37And then that makes its way across into parts of northern England and Scotland.
11:42Worth noting a greater snow risk.
11:44So some hill snow, some colder air coming in as we go through the latter part of the week.
11:49So more hill snow affecting parts of Scotland and then more unsettled weather elsewhere,
11:53a showery burst of rain, perhaps even some longer spells of rain across parts of the southwest again as we go through Friday.
12:01A quick look at the weekend whilst we're here.
12:03Actually, Saturday looks not too bad in comparison to what we've had recently.
12:09In as much as there'll be some rain here and there, but also some drier weather.
12:13But then another band of rain is set to come in as we go through into Sunday.
12:17And again, whilst the rainfall doesn't look especially high,
12:21it's just going to add to the very wet ground.
12:24And so we could see some further issues as a result.
12:28But what happens if we look further ahead and are there any signs of something a little bit dry?
12:34And what I have here is a Hofmoller and this is plotting the weather pattern in the past and then in the future.
12:40So this black horizontal line, it shows us where we are currently.
12:44And the vertical line is the position of the UK.
12:47And we're looking and this is showing us the sequence at around 500 hectopascals.
12:54So that's about five, five, five and a half kilometers up.
12:59And what we can see is the generally pretty unsettled, the dark blue showing the unsettled theme that we have at the moment.
13:08But there are some hints as we go into the very beginning of February that we could see something quieter developing.
13:15We can look at that in a different way if we get this plot up.
13:19And if you've seen this before, you'll know the blues are generally more unsettled patterns.
13:25The red's a little bit more settled.
13:27But if we just click on this one, for example, our Scandinavian high with this set up as we go through.
13:32I mean, Saturday, it's it's not looking too bad, but I don't think that will change too much.
13:37But there's always the potential for unsettled weather to be coming in still as we go through this weekend.
13:44And then thereafter, I mean, if we look at some of the possibilities, there are hints of an easterly developing.
13:49So we could see a marked drop in our temperatures.
13:52But I just want to throw in the caveat that actually, I mean, the lower pressure systems look pretty more likely.
14:01A percentage chance of those is greater, really, even as we go into next week.
14:05It's not really until the back end of next week where we see these patterns becoming a bit more percentage likely.
14:12But they're so far away. And, you know, I think it was about a week, two weeks ago that we're hinting about this time that we could be getting in easterly.
14:19And you often see it at this sort of six to ten day lead time of a change to more of a blocking pattern coming in and influencing our weather doesn't necessarily always play out.
14:31And so, yeah, not overly optimistic that we're going to see a prolonged dry spell, even if some models are hinting at it as we go deeper into February.
14:43So one to watch. But at the moment, it looks like the generally unsettled theme is going to continue.
14:49And why is that a problem? Well, let's look at a few things.
14:52It has been very, very wet recently.
14:55Now, interestingly, there's an episode of Climate Conversations, which we're putting out this week, I think on Thursday, where I talked to one of our chief meteorologists, Will Lang.
15:03And we recorded it a little while ago. November, I think we recorded it.
15:09But we're putting it out now because it's very topical because we talked about the changing climate leading to changes in our rainfall.
15:15Yes, we're seeing drier summers as a whole in as much as we saw that spring, summer dry, like one of the driest on records.
15:24But then when we get the rain during those summer months, it's intense downpours, which leads to surface water flooding.
15:31Meanwhile, the winters are getting wetter.
15:34And that's what we're really seeing at the moment.
15:36It's just been so very wet across parts of the UK, really through much of autumn, but also large chunks of winter.
15:43And I want to look at some winter stats now.
15:46What do I have here?
15:47So this map shows us the 2026 or December 2025 to 26th of January 2026 compared to average for the whole of winter.
16:01So this is looking at how the rainfall so far this winter stacks up compared to the average for the whole of the season.
16:08And whilst, yes, large chunks of the country are showing as brown because they've had less rain than average, northern Scotland having substantially less rain than average.
16:16You know, we're about what, like not quite two thirds of the way through the season.
16:22And yet some places, particularly towards the southwest, but also across parts of northern Ireland, eastern Scotland, have already had more than their average rainfall for the whole winter.
16:35And we've still got over a month of winter left.
16:39And so remember, this is all meteorological.
16:41So we're talking December, January, February.
16:44So it has been really wet in some places and some places haven't quite caught up.
16:48But even there, about average for what you would expect at this time of the season, you'd expect around 63%.
16:54So this kind of deep brownie colour, not the super deep, but the deep brownie colour.
16:58So most places are wetter than that.
17:00Then the other thing that I wanted to highlight is this is looking at January.
17:09So looking at January so far and breaking it down into individual counties, where do they stack up for January records in as much as they're colour coded for where they are?
17:21So the whites are near average, but some counties, some parts of eastern Scotland, down Northern Ireland and Dorset, in this category of they're already in the second to fifth wettest Januaries on record.
17:37Even though this is only the first 26 days of January, there are still a fair few more days to come.
17:41And as I pointed out, there's unsettled weather around still as we go through this week and the end of the end of the month.
17:48So there is a lot more rain to come.
17:50Interestingly, Dorset's already at its second wettest January on record.
17:55Yes, there's a substantial amount of rain still to come.
17:58I think we're about 40, 50 millimetres away from the previous record, but it's going to be close when you take into account the heavy rain that's coming through Thursday night into Friday and then again Friday and into the weekend as well.
18:13So it's one to watch out for. But yes, some places have had a really wet January and really wet winter as a whole.
18:23If we look at the UK for winter and this is the rainfall accumulating through the season, the black line, the solid black line is your average.
18:34And then the dotted line is 2026. And you can see the top and the bottom values in previous records.
18:43And you can see we started the winter on a pretty wet note.
18:45Then we had that drier spell around Christmas.
18:48And so then actually at that point, we were a little bit below average rainfall wise.
18:51But then just in recent weeks or last week or so, it's really topped up.
18:55But this is if we look at the UK as a whole.
18:57Let's look at Dorset because I just mentioned Dorset having such a wet January.
19:01And you can see this is winter, not January that we're comparing.
19:05This is winter. You can see just how wet it's been in recent days.
19:09And again, they had that drier period during the Christmas period, which was obviously quite convenient timing for many people.
19:17But if we compare it to the average and remember, this is the average for the whole of the winter, even by like a week or so ago.
19:24So halfway through winter, they'd already had more than their average rainfall for the whole season at just the halfway mark.
19:33And yeah, more unsettled wet weather to come.
19:36And you can see we're not too far off the all time record for this stage in the season.
19:41And there's so much more rain coming through through the next few days.
19:45So, yeah, it has been really wet in some places.
19:47And so that's why Storm Chandra brought some significant impacts.
19:51And that's also why, even though some of the rainfall totals later on this week and into the weekend may not be as high.
19:58We're still likely to see some impacts, some river, river flooding and whatnot because of how much rain we've already had.
20:06And just adding on to that is just going to continue to cause some problems.
20:10I think that's all I wanted to cover from the UK point of view.
20:17So, yes, more unsettled weather to come.
20:19Signs that we could get in these leads.
20:21There have been hints of something a bit colder, but it always looks like it's just that little bit too far ahead to be particularly confident about.
20:29But now let's look at what's been happening, what's happened across parts of the US.
20:35So I already mentioned it, the strong jet stream being driven because of a huge temperature contrast, really cold air across northern parts of America.
20:45So eastern US, southeastern parts of Canada, really cold air.
20:51And you can just see the huge temperature contrast that's driven the strong jet stream that's helped drive Storm Chandra and make it into such a storm.
21:00But with that, then, we've also had some really severe weather affecting parts of the US as well.
21:07If we just, yeah, that will do.
21:09So over the weekend, there was a severe winter storm.
21:13It brought a lot of disruption affected around like 36 states, caused disruption to millions.
21:21And I think for some places, it was like their greatest snowstorms in more than five years.
21:27New York City had more than 11 inches of snow.
21:31Yeah, New York City had more than 11 inches of snow, I think around 28, 29 centimetres of lying snow.
21:38So it caused some severe disruption.
21:39There have been at least 30 fatalities as a result of the severe winter storm.
21:45Snow was a major issue, but it was also the freezing rain.
21:49There have been lots of reports, lots of imagery of some severe icing as a result of the freezing rain,
21:54which has caused many problems.
21:56Yes, very difficult driving conditions, roads like ice rinks.
22:00And also the fact that that freezing rain then just sits on the power lines and trees and is so heavy
22:08that it leads to trees collapsing, branches falling off and also power lines collapsing.
22:13So no wonder there have been power cuts.
22:15Lots and lots of people without power at the moment.
22:18And that is an ongoing issue as well, because although the more severe winter storm weather in terms of the freezing rain,
22:25the snow is now clearing away towards the east, the cold air looks set to remain.
22:31Temperatures through this week across many parts of eastern U.S. are going to remain sub zero.
22:37That's by daytime temperatures not getting above freezing.
22:40And then by night, some places falling as low as minus 25 Celsius.
22:44Even in some places where you don't typically see such low temperatures by night,
22:48they're seeing temperatures falling several degrees below freezing.
22:51And when you factor in, lots of places have power cuts and lots of places rely on heat pumps, etc.
22:57It's going to make conditions really, really difficult for some parts in the U.S.
23:02The cold weather looks set to continue into the end of the week and next and into the following weekend.
23:11And then there's the potential for another winter storm to develop as we go through into this weekend.
23:18So if we just take a look around Florida, we're likely to see an area of low pressure developing.
23:24And there's still some uncertainty as to exactly how this feature is going to develop.
23:29As we go into Saturday, it should start to develop.
23:32And depending on how strong a feature, how intense it is, will then play a part in the track that it takes.
23:38And so as we go through this weekend, if it develops into quite a deep feature,
23:43then it could track go a bit more northwards quite quickly.
23:48And so we could see some significant snow spilling up through like the Carolinas.
23:53And again, bringing some intense freezing rain, some intense snow and causing more issues there.
23:59An alternative is it doesn't develop as much, doesn't become as intense.
24:04And instead, it just tracks more out towards the Atlantic.
24:07So uncertainty as to exactly how unsettled it's going to be as we go through into this weekend.
24:13But yes, there is the potential for the return of some severe wintry weather across some parts of the U.S.
24:19So it's unlikely to spread quite as far north as what we've seen through the weekend.
24:24Not quite making its way towards New York, perhaps, but it's potential.
24:28It all just develops.
24:29It depends on how developed a feature it becomes.
24:34Then what else is going on?
24:36Lots around the other parts of the world.
24:38Let's go put this back to the here and now.
24:42And let's look at Europe.
24:46Because, as I mentioned earlier, Storm Joseph, named by the Portuguese Met Service,
24:51is currently battering parts of Portugal, Gibraltar, Spain, even North Morocco through this week.
24:58Because we have this feature coming through at the moment through Tuesday.
25:01There's some heavy rain.
25:02And then there's another feature that comes through as we go through Wednesday into Thursday.
25:07And when you add up those two events, some places will be looking at like 200, 300 millimetres of rain.
25:12And so that's going to cause some problems.
25:14And there's the strong winds, damaging winds coming through as well.
25:18So you can see more wet weather coming through as we go through towards Thursday time as well.
25:23So really unsettled across parts of Spain, Portugal and Morocco, northern parts of Morocco as well.
25:29Also unsettled weather across other parts of the Mediterranean.
25:34We have heavy, thundery rain across parts of France and even across parts of Italy and just around the Mediterranean.
25:47And we could be looking at 50 to 100 millimetres of rain in some places
25:52and 50 to 100 centimetres of fresh snowfall over some parts of the Alps.
25:58Now that may be seen as welcome news I guess for some skiers but that's a substantial amount
26:02and that's going to cause some issues because of how quickly it's coming.
26:06And so really unsettled weather, there are strong winds, there are large waves, stormy conditions as well.
26:12So really difficult, really unsettled across parts of the Mediterranean as well.
26:16Part of the reason for that, and I mean our weather's always tied in, you know,
26:20what's happening with us in the UK and what's happening in other parts of the world.
26:23There's always a link. It's worth noting this big blocking high that's over, well near Scandinavia
26:29and it's this that just continues. If we go back to now, we can see that we have the blocking high
26:34and it's part of the reason because of this blocking high that Chandra took the route that it's taken.
26:40But it's also this blocking high that's keeping all these low pressure systems tracking a little bit further south
26:45than we perhaps normally see. And it's as a result of this that we're having that very unsettled weather
26:51sweeping through across the Mediterranean, across southern Europe as we go through this week, really unsettled here.
26:59On another severe weather note, but not in the same vein, is what's currently happening across parts of Australia.
27:07Let's put our temperature layer on. And there's been some extreme heat across parts of Australia through the last few days.
27:15Melbourne's recorded a maximum temperature of 45 Celsius, its hottest day in almost 17 years.
27:24And actually in Victoria, the state itself, not too far from Melbourne, there was a temperature of 48.9,
27:31which is a new state record. That is incredibly hot, unbearable.
27:35If you just think about how hot it was when the UK got to 40 Celsius, and so yeah, 48.9, that is really hot.
27:43And with that hot weather, well, unsurprisingly, there have been a number of issues with bushfires,
27:49wildfires setting off and then causing major problems.
27:54And whilst there is going to be a slight respite in the heat through the next day or so,
28:01the extreme heat does ease a little bit. Actually, we see the winds picking up a little bit as well as we go through the next couple of days.
28:10And so that's actually going to perhaps make the situation when it comes to the bushfires a little bit worse,
28:16because it could help blow them around and help get them going again.
28:20So that could cause further issues. And then actually, as we go towards the end of the week,
28:24we're likely to see more hot weather across parts of Australia.
28:29And so the bushfire risk continues. The very difficult, unbearable hot conditions continue as well.
28:38Fortunately, by the time that we get to the weekend, it does look like a cold front will sweep through,
28:43and that will bring much fresher conditions, not cold, no, no, no, but fresher conditions.
28:48And so then there is a bit of a let up in sight in terms of the extreme heat.
28:52But yes, some really hazardous weather that's been happening in many places around the world.
28:57So I just wanted to touch on that. Remember to stay up to date with the warnings that we have out at the moment.
29:02Storm Chandra is currently still affecting us.
29:05And we have a lot of warnings, snow and rain, strong winds at the moment.
29:12And then we have an ice warning out for much of the country as we go through tonight and into Wednesday morning.
29:18And then already a rain warning looking ahead to what's happening in the southwest as we go through Thursday
29:23because of more rain coming in and affecting already saturated ground.
29:28So hazardous weather around the world, hazardous weather in the UK.
