Met Office points one other yellow warning
The Met Office has issued a fresh yellow weather warning, with torrential downpours and flooding set to wreak more havoc across the UK.
The yellow warning – indicating heavy rain could cause disruption – covers much of England and Wales, apart from North Wales, parts of the West Midlands and the north-west of England.
This warning is in place between 5pm on Thursday and 10am on Friday.
It is in addition to the yellow rain warning which was previously issued for Thursday, lasting all day and covering much of the north-east of England.
Yellow warnings indicate a slight chance of power cuts, a small chance that homes and businesses could become flooded, as well as the possibility of travel disruption, the Met Office said.
It comes after parts of the UK saw more than the monthly average rainfall on Monday, with flash flooding damaging homes and disrupting travel.

Firefighters and police worked to evacuate residents until late on Tuesday night at Billing Aquadrome holiday park, Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service said.
A ‘very limited’ number of people remain at the site, the fire service added.
Teams used 4×4 vehicles and PPE to help 43 people away from areas that were affected by the rising flood water.
West Northamptonshire Council carried out welfare checks on vulnerable people at the site and provided an overnight rest centre and emergency bedding at Lings Forum Leisure Centre for 52 people and 22 dogs displaced by the flooding.
Volunteers from the Red Cross and Re:Act are supporting people at the centre who have been provided with hot food and drink.
The firefighters left at about midnight but will be returning on Wednesday.
