A SEVERE weather warning has been issued for Gloucestershire.
The Met Office has issued a yellow warning of heavy rain from today, Monday, which is expected to last through to Wednesday morning.
Chief forecaster for the Met Office has predicted that pulses of heavy and sometimes thundery rain will spread northwards across south west England and South Wales before finally clearing northeastwards on Wednesday.
The public should be aware of the risk of localised flooding, perhaps exacerbated by fallen leaves blocking drainage courses.
