Sussex is set to have a wet and windy end to 2023 as the county gets ready to welcome the new year.

Wind speeds of up to 40mph are expected to hit Sussex tomorrow, New Year’s Eve, as revellers get ready to celebrate the start of 2024.

Showers are also forecast during the morning in Brighton, Chichester, Worthing and Crawley, with heavy rain expected in Eastbourne.

Closer to midnight, the rain is forecast to clear across the county with cloudy or partly cloudy skies, but strong winds will persist, which could cause some disruption to firework displays.

The first day of the new year will start off dry with clouds, before turning rainy later in the evening. Temperatures are expected to reach a high of around 8-9C.
