TEN DAYS RAIN TO HIT BRITAIN TOMORROW

By John Ingham and Fiona Bradley

MONSOON Britain will be lashed by 10 days of rain in just 24 hours
tomorrow as the miserable summer ends with a bang.

Forecasters warned of a “severe weather event”, with thunderstorms and
torrential downpours hitting a large swathe of the country.


The UK will pay for today’s heatwave, when temperatures are set to
reach 81F (27C) from southern England up to the Midlands. Tropical
conditions will strike with a vengeance tomorrow, with storms working
their way north across the eastern half of the country from the South
to Aberdeenshire.


The Met Office predicted the “severe event” would affect eastern
England and eastern Scotland during tomorrow.
