Live updates as heavy rain to lash Gloucestershire as Met Office issues weather warning across border in Wales

Downpours are forecast across Gloucestershire today (Sunday, November 9) with heavy rain forecast from the early afternoon through to late evening.

The Met Office has issued a severe weather warning for rain in parts of Wales until 7pm, but the warning zone stops short of the border with Gloucestershire.

People in Monmouthshire as well as parts of southern Wales have been told that heavy rain is likely to lead to some flooding during Sunday.

The warning for Wales adds flooding of a few homes and businesses is possible, spray on roads could make journey times longer, and bus and train services could take longer.

In the Forest of Dean, heavy rain is forecast from 2pm until 7pm, with lighter rain and then more heavy rain from 9pm to 10pm.
