It's time to get the umbrellas out again as the Met Office has issued an eleven-hour rain warning for the South of England.
The yellow alert for rain takes in Bristol, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Somerset with torrential rain expected in the region.
A separate thunderstorm alert was issued yesterday and is set to expire at noon today (October 19).
And the miserable weather is set to continue, as areas in England are poised to experience wet and windy conditions from 4pm today until 3am tomorrow morning (October 21).
As much as 50mm ofrain could hit the region late on Wednesday afternoon, lasting for around six hours, and it could be accompanied by gales and thunder.
This could cause serious disruption, as it is likely that a few homes and businesses could flood, according to the Met Office.
Journey times could take longer because of spray and flooding on roads, while bus and train services will probably be affected.
It is also likely that there will be some interruption to power supplies and other services.
