The Ronaldsway Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning indicating heavy rain expected to sweep across the Isle of Man on Tuesday from 6am to 9pm.
“Generally wet and windy on Tuesday with strengthening south to southeast winds bringing prolonged periods of often heavy rain. Rainfall totals look to be 20 to 30mm widely but up to about 50mm over the hills.
Given the already saturated ground, there'll be a quick runoff of the rain to give areas of surface water flooding, especially in prone places and locations where drainage is poor or blocked by autumn debris. River levels will rise quite quickly.”
The Met Office continues to monitor the situation closely.
Summary: The Isle of Man faces a significant weather event on Tuesday, with heavy rain and strong winds causing potential flooding due to saturated ground, while the rest of the week will see variable rain and wind conditions.
