Weather warning moved back

By Emma Philo Wed, 03 October 2012 3:20PM

Earlier weather warnings for heavy rain across a 36-hour period have been moved back.

The Met Office has revised its predictions for wet weather for Thursday, now saying it could affect us from Friday.

It says there could be the potential for periods of heavy rain across much of the southern half of the UK - including the Isle of Wight - from 0005 on Friday night until 0600 on Saturday morning. 

However, they add that "the area covered by the alert is likely to be adjusted further as the event approaches."
