Covering Wednesday and Thursday in West Kent

The Met Office is predicting heavy showers, perhaps thundery, are possible in places on Wednesday night into Thursday morning and have issued a yellow weather warning across West Kent and the southeast.

What should I expect?

  • Spray and sudden flooding could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures
  • Where flooding or lightning strikes occur, there is a chance of delays and some cancellations to train and bus services
  • There is a slight chance that power cuts could occur and other services to some homes and businesses could be lost
  • There is a small chance that homes and businesses could be flooded quickly, with damage to some buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds
  • There is a small chance of fast-flowing or deep floodwater causing danger to life
