More heavy rain and gale-force winds are forecast to hit the Burnham-On-Sea area during today (Friday) as the Met Office’s severe weather warning remains in place.
A yellow alert has been issued for the whole of the south west.
“West or southwesterly gales are likely to affect many parts during Friday. The public should be aware that some damage to trees is likely and that disruption to travel and outdoor activities could also occur. The gales are also likely to be accompanied by some heavy rain,” said a Met Office spokesman.
Winds should gradually ease from the southwest after about midday.
