Weather Warnings, 02.10.2025, UK

Severe Weather Warnings: Rain

Date

issued by the Metoffice at
   23:00, 02.10.2025

valid from
   17:00, 01.10.2025
until
   23:59, 02.10.2025


Region: Highland & Eilean Siar

Warning

Further rain is expected to affect much of west and northwest Scotland during Wednesday night and Thursday, persistent across some coastal and upland areas. The rain will turn heavier for a time during Thursday afternoon and evening, before clearing most areas by or soon after midnight. During the warning period, 30-50 mm is expected widely with 60-80 mm possible in parts of the northwest and on high ground. Coming on top of rain that has already fallen in recent days, this is expected to lead to a risk of landslides as well as localised flooding. In addition, strong winds are expected to accompany the rain, with gusts of 45-55 mph likely around coasts and hills later on Thursday. What Should I Do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

Region: Northern Ireland

Warning

Outbreaks of rain are likely at times on Thursday, becoming heavier and more persistent through the afternoon and early evening, before clearing to the east by Thursday night. Accumulations of 20-30 mm are likely fairly widely, with in excess of 40 mm possible over high ground. Given recent wet weather, this may lead to some flooding. It will also become rather windy for a time later on Thursday afternoon and into the evening, especially in the east with gusts along the coast potentially in excess of 50 mph. What Should I Do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit.
