Exact date the whole of Britain will be battered by massive rainstorm
Britain is set to be battered by a rainstorm across the country as a map shows the exact date the stormy weather will hit.
A new map shows that the wet weather will hit up and down the country, with some parts of Britain plummeting to 0C as the wintery conditions are not over yet. The map from WXCharts shows how a lot of the country will be covered in blue on Tuesday 26 March, indicating heavy rainfall.
The downpour will hit the UK at around midnight with heavy rain then expected for 10 hours after that so Brits will likely wake up to the results. By the afternoon of March 26, the storms are expected to start subsiding with only the southern parts of the country forecast to continue experiencing light rainfall.
The current forecast, according to the WXCharts map, shows how areas from Wick in Scotland all the way down to Plymouth in Devon will be hit by the storm. Parts of Scotland look like they will be the worst impacted when the storm hits, with 38-42mm of rainfall expected during the 10-hour period. Moving south, the next most affected cities are Edinburgh, Newcastle and Manchester, where 15-20mm of rain is forecast.
