Rain Weather Warning Issued For The Yorkshire Coast

30-40mm of rain is expected to fall wideley, with some higher ground possibly seeing over 100mm of rain today,

The Met Office have issued a Yellow Weather Warning for the whole Yorkshire Coast for today which lasts until early Thursday.

Rain totals will build through Wednesday as a low pressure system moves in from the North Sea.

The Met Office warning reads:

An area of rain is expected to develop across eastern and central England and then move northwestwards to affect northern England and north Wales during Wednesday afternoon. The area of rain could then become slow moving, heavy and persistent, especially over north facing hills, before clearing during Thursday morning. There is a lot of uncertainty over exactly where the heaviest rain will occur and this warning is likely to be updated.  Many places will see 30-40 mm of rain, while a few areas may receive 60-80 mm.  There is also a small chance that a few upland areas could see much higher totals, in the order of 100-150 mm.

We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
