Suffolk to be hit by heavy rain and strong winds as yellow weather warnings issued

Suffolk is set to be hit by heavy rain and strong winds tomorrow with yellow weather warnings in place.

The warning for rain, with potential for flooding and disruption in some places, is from 5am to 5pm across the whole county.

Meanwhile, the warning for wind is from 8am to 6pm and is forecast to mainly affect East Suffolk and the coast.

The Met Office said there was a small chance of disruption from strong winds.

A Suffolk Highways spokesperson urged motorists to take extra care.

They said: “The ground is saturated following one of the wettest periods on record, so although we've focussed our efforts on clearing drainage, there will be flooding on the highway.”
