The Met Office has released an amber weather warning for Berkshire and Buckinghamshire amid the heavy rain we are currently experiencing.
The heavy rain is expected to produce some flooding and travel disruption.
Spray and flooding probably leading to difficult driving conditions and some road closures. Homes and businesses may be flooded, causing damage to some buildings. Delays and some cancellations to train and bus services are likely.
There is also a possibility that some communities will be cut off by flooded roads. Power cuts and loss of other services to some homes and businesses likely.
Not all counties within the warning area will be equally affected, but it seems likely that some areas will see 60-80 mm and a few places may receive 120mm or more. Travel disruption and some flooding is likely.
Lightning may be an additional hazard in places.
As well as this Amber warning, a Yellow warning for heavy rain is valid until the end of Monday.
