    Storm Babet is expected to wreak havoc on the UK this week with weather warnings issued across the country.<\/p>\n

    The Met Office has warned the tempest poses a "danger to life" as torrential rain will likely cause flooding, while strong winds will batter some regions. Up to seven inches of rain could accumulate in areas of higher ground.<\/p>\n

    The storm is expected to hit tomorrow (Wednesday, October 18) with forecasters predicting "extremely heavy rain" which will "cause flooding and disruption". Yellow weather warnings for downpours have been issued from 6am across Yorkshire, the East Midlands, the east of England and the North.<\/p>\n

    Warnings are in place across the country for a staggering 78 hours until Saturday (October 21) with the worst of the storm expected to end by midday. However the forecasters stressed more warnings are likely to be announced in the coming days.<\/p>\n
