A total of 14 counties have been placed under a fresh ‘danger to life’ weather warning for rain just hours after Storm Babet left her deadly mark on Britain.<\/p>\n
The Met Office has warned heavy downpours will return from 3am tomorrow until 4pm the same day. The forecaster added that some flooding is again likely given the already “saturated” areas.<\/p>\n
In a statement, it said: “An area of rain, some of which will be heavy, will move north across the region during Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n
“There remains some uncertainty in the extent of the heavier rain, but given the already saturated conditions, where this occurs further impacts from flooding are possible.<\/p>\n
“A total of 10-20 mm of rain is expected to fall fairly widely, but a few places could see 30-50 mm; these higher totals more likely in Lincolnshire and Humberside.”<\/p>\n
