WEATHER warnings have been rolled out across Britain today as 75mph gales and torrential rain are forecast to batter the country.<\/p>\n
Almost two inches of rain is expected to fall in just a couple of hours alongside some of the strongest winds seen this year.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Yellow weather warnings for wind and rain – stretching across the West Coast up to the North of Scotland – are in place from 8am, according to the Met Office.<\/p>\n
Flooding is expected with bus and train services likely to be affected in Scotland – with forecasters warning of heavy rain across the rest of UK throughout the day.<\/p>\n
It comes as the super-strength Jet Stream in the North Atlantic is sucking extreme weather from Hurricane Ian in the US and dumping it on Britain.<\/p>\n
Friday morning will see fog developing in much of the South of England and North of Scotland – it will feel chilly under the cloud in these areas.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There will be highs of 12C in Aberdeen, 12C in Hull, 12C in Birmingham, 14C in Liverpool, 15C in Cardiff and 16C in London.<\/p>\n
Through the morning a vast wet and windy weather front will push in from the Atlantic – bringing heavy rain across the whole of the western edge of Britain.<\/p>\n
Northern Ireland has already seen heavy rainfall and gale-force winds of up to 70mph today.<\/p>\n
And winds of 40-50mph hammered Wales and Cornwall this morning.<\/p>\n
