Competition Time: Spot The Combine Harvester
Britain is due for a weekend washout as forecasters warn that heavy rain and strong winds will continue to lash the country, leaving many areas vulnerable to flooding warns the Telegraph.
The Met Office has also issued a "severe and extreme" weather warning for the South West and North East of England, with almost a month's worth of rain expected in a matter of hours today (FRI).
Two flood warnings have been issued by the Environment Agency for the Peterston-super-Ely and St Fagans areas of Cardiff, as the first Atlantic storm of the autumn takes hold.
A further 12 areas across Devon, Cornwall, Wales, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and Gloucestershire are advised to stay on the alert, with flooding of low-lying land and roads deemed likely.
Only northern Scotland will escape the wet weather, and could even experience some sunshine.
Forecasters have warned that the rain will carry on into the weekend and beyond, with the Midlands bearing the brunt of the deluge on Saturday.
A Met Office spokesman said: "Almost every part of Britain will experience heavy rainfall this weekend, it is a pretty miserable outlook. An area of low pressure will move into the South West over Thursday night and Friday morning, and will push a band of rain across the country to the North East.
"Saturday will bring more heavy showers and although things will improve in the South West on Sunday, there will still be wet weather for the eastern side of the country.
"Looking into the week, there isn't much respite. We expect it will be generally unsettled, with further outbreaks of heavy rain across the country."
The intense weather front crossing the country on Friday is predicted to see more than 50mm (1.96 inches) of rain fall in some areas and will be followed by thunder and lightning. The torrential downpour will be accompanied by wind speeds of up to 50 miles per hour.
