New flood alerts for Coventry and Warwickshire as Met Office confirms when rain will stop
Persistent rain has saturated catchments, raising flood risks on multiple rivers; the UK has reached 111% of its average winter rainfall, Environment Agency warns.
- The Environment Agency placed multiple Coventry and Warwickshire waterways under flood alert, including the River Dene, Upper Avon, River Leam, and River Itchen, urging caution.
- BBC Weather attributes the heavy rain to a `blocked pattern`, with several observing sites recording 37+ successive rainy days and the UK at 89% of average winter rainfall.
- More rain is likely over the next 72 hours before conditions ease, with Friday expected to bring a break in the rain, BBC Weather reports.
- A local forecast warns of murky starts with patchy mist and drizzle that may affect travel, while rain will edge northeast by morning then clear north through the afternoon, affecting travel and transport impacts.
- High pressure to the east may briefly reduce rainfall later in the week, but Atlantic weather fronts and milder westerly winds are expected to return at the end of the weekend.
