Weather alert issued for south of England

The Met Office has issued a weather alert with forecasts of heavy rain across the south of England from tomorrow evening. 

On its website, it says: "There is the potential for periods of heavy rain across much of the southern half of the UK during the 36 hours from Thursday evening until Saturday morning.

"However there is considerable uncertainty in the northward extent of this heavy rain and the area covered by the alert is likely to be adjusted as the event approaches.

"The public should be aware of the possibility of disruption to travel due to localised flooding.

"The public is advised to take extra care."

Nope Graham, by me, now fixed. In my defence, I have an injured thumb, so each word has been literally painstakingly typed (or at least the spaces in between them).

You use your thumb to get to the 'e' key? That's impressive! Hope the injury clears up soon ;)

The met office couldn't give an accurate weather forecast if their lives depended on it - it's weds afternoon and it's been pelting down for hours - well done met office - now could this lot be sacked for 30 years gross incompetence?
