Heavy downpours and strong winds are due to pelt parts of the UK, according to two Met Office yellow weather warnings. The alerts cover the entire south coast of England, as well as most of Wales, the Midlands and parts of the North on Wednesday.

A wind warning covers coastal southern areas of England from 4am to 6pm, while thunderstorms and heavy showers could batter cities including Nottingham, Oxford and areas of London, according to the second warning, which runs from 9am until 7pm.

The gusts on the south coast could reach speeds of up to 60mph in the most exposed areas.

The “unseasonably windy” conditions are expected to disrupt travel by delaying trains and ferries, as well as affecting roads, with some flooding predicted due to the slow-moving storms.
