RAIN is headed for Somerset today and tomorrow. 

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning from 2pm today (June 27) until 7am tomorrow (June 28). 

The warning covers the whole of the South West. 

There will be areas of 'persistant' rain, as well as heavy rain which could lead to localised flooding and travel disruption. 

"Spray and flooding will lead to difficult driving conditions and prehaps some road closures," said a spokesperson for the Met Office. 

"Where flooding occurs, there may be delays or cancellations to train and bus services. 

"And there is a small chance homes and businesses could be flooded. 

"There is also a small chance of fast flowing or deep floodwater."
