WORCESTERSHIRE is in for a day of wind and rain as the tail end of Storm Claudio sweeps the country.

The Met Office said rain is likely to be a feature for people in the county throughout most of Tuesday, with a wind warning in place.

Met Office chief meteorologist Neil Armstrong said: "The biggest impacts from Storm Claudio are expected in northern France, which is why is has been named as a system by Météo-France.

"What it means for us in the UK is for some high winds to be possible along much of the southern coast of England. 

"Some isolated and especially exposed coastal areas could see gusts in excess of 70mph, while much of the warning area will see gusts of between 50 and 60mph."  

After Storm Claudio moves eastwards early on Tuesday, what’s left behind is a showery day for much of the UK, with Wales and areas in southern and central England likely to see the most frequent of showers.
