Heavy rain is expected to develop across the Central Belt on Thursday night before clearing on Friday morning. Many areas are likely to see 15-25 mm of rain, much of this falling in around 6 hours with a few locations seeing up to 35 mm overnight. What should I do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

Heavy rain on Friday morning may cause some travel disruption
