The forecasting body predicted a drier Sunday but said the “odd spot of rain” will still fall in parts of Western Scotland, North West England, Wales and South West England. Flooding in the South West was causing disruption to some train services on Sunday, including between Swindon and Bristol Parkway, affecting routes between London Paddington and Cardiff Central. The meteorologist warned the dry end to Sunday will be quickly followed by the “next area of rain”, with heavy rainfall in parts of North West England and Wales on Monday morning. But the wet weather is set to “weaken” as it moves eastwards so there will be “very little rain” arriving into parts of London and the South East. “And in behind it plenty of sunshine developing probably one of the sunniest days of the week coming up,” he said.
