Forecast Details and Affected Areas
Met Office meteorologist Honor Criswick explained: "As we head into Monday, northerly winds will drag some cloud southwards, bringing rain across the far north of Scotland. We could also see a little bit of rain around the east coast of England, but the best of the brightness is likely going to be across southern parts of Wales and southern England. This is where we'll see the highest temperatures as well, reaching around 25C to 26C."
The warning covers 12 areas, with the heaviest rain expected in Scotland. The Met Office urges residents to prepare for sudden travel disruption and potential surface flooding.
