Up to 50mm could fall in parts of southern England after a new weather warning for rain was issued by the Met Office.
It comes just days after hundreds of homes were left flooded, as Storm Bert brought heavy gusts up to 80mph, causing a number of fatalities.
The latest storm, called Conall, is the third of the season and was named by the Dutch Weather Service, which along with the Met Office and Met Eireann in Ireland name storms so that the communication of severe weather is easier.
As of Tuesday evening, there are 90 flood warnings and more than 120 flood alerts still in place.
Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Steve Willington, said “Much of the warning area will see 15-20 mm of rain, with 30-40 mm in some areas.
“There is a lower chance of 50 mm of rain in a few places, more likely for areas such as the Isle of Wight, Sussex and Kent, before rain eases and clears by early afternoon. Given the recent wet weather, some disruption to travel and infrastructure could be possible.
“Along with the rain, things will turn colder from tomorrow for all, with frost and some freezing fog possible.”
