Three days of heavy rain are forecast in the UK, and the Met Office has issued a weather warning after a long heatwave.
A new thunderstorm warning is in effect for the country after the extreme heat warning ends tonight at midnight.
With this intense drought continuing, there are concerns that the rains will cause flooding and have little effect in alleviating drought conditions, even as the scorching weather has been replaced by thunderstorms.
But it can reduce the risk of wildfires, which have put a lot of pressure on fire departments across the country in recent weeks.
The temperature reached 34.1° According to the Bureau of Meteorology, in Charlwood, Surrey, C.
It expired at 10pm, but a yellow alert for the whole of the UK will come into force tomorrow.
Tuesdays and Wednesdays only include the southern part of the country.
Meteorologists warned of thunder, lightning and blackouts due to the influx of rain.
Met meteorologist Dan Stroud says that sudden changes in weather are caused by changes in atmospheric pressure.
He explained:
“Before high pressure prevailed, now low pressure prevails, which makes the air more unstable.
“It doesn’t take long for the air to become more unstable and thunderstorms develop quickly because the ground temperature is so high.”
The change comes after the National Drought Group (NDG) declared an official drought in eight areas of England on Friday.
Three water companies – Wales Water, Southern Water and South East Water – also imposed a hose ban, with Yorkshire Water launching a ban on August 26 and Thames Water for a few weeks. He said he plans to ban it in the next few days. .
But Stroud said there will be heavy rain in the coming days, but the drought is unlikely to abate.
“It would help a little bit, but honestly it’s almost the wrong kind of rain,” he said.
“What we are likely to see is heavy rain.
When the soil dries out, it becomes very difficult for the soil to absorb water. So what happens in these circumstances is that the water can run off and cause surface runoff problems. flood. ‘
The heatwave has sparked bushfires across England, with fires burning in Yorkshire, Northamptonshire, Essex and Devon.
That’s because a search is underway after a man was reported to have had difficulty underwater in the Thames, west of London.
