Rainfall has caused problems on roads, leading to crashes and flooding. This comes as a rainy period gets underway. Further details are available from the NEXT Weather Team, who are monitoring the situation.

Daily rain showers are expected to continue through next weekend. A new daily rainfall record was set recently when a significant amount of rain fell at an airport, breaking a record that had stood since 1937. More rain is anticipated, with scattered showers expected to move through the area.

One day is predicted to be mostly sunny, but this is an exception in an otherwise rainy period.
