The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for heavy rainfall in the Burnham-On-Sea area today (Saturday, July 3rd).
It says a band of heavy, persistent rain showers may form during the afternoon and evening between 1-9pm.
A spokesman says: “Heavy, perhaps thundery, downpours may become concentrated into a narrow corridor of persistent heavy rain on Saturday afternoon and evening.”
“Where this occurs, 20-30 mm rain may fall in an hour with 40-50 mm of rain in 3 or 4 hours, and a small chance of up to 80 mm in a few places.”
“This brings a risk of localised flooding and disruption, whilst locations either side of this shower band may see very little rain.”
