UK braces for more flooding ahead of colder spell
By Oliver Slow & Jasmine AnderssonPeople across the UK are being urged to prepare for more heavy rain, flooding and cold weather in the coming days.- mainly in west and southwest England - and 167 flood alerts.
Forecasters are warning that bus and train services will probably be affected, while spray and flooding on roads is set to make journey times longer. The Met Office's Helen Caughey said: "After a spell of wet and mild weather to start 2023, a brief cold spell will change the feel of our weather across the UK for a few days next week."
Some flood warnings and alerts are also in place further north, including in Keswick in the Lake District, Yorkshire, as well as in Wales.
