00:00Good morning Sheffield it's Alistair from the Sheffield Star. You join me once
00:03again on the rooftop of the Sheffield Star offices where it's actually quite a
00:06nice day but we're not here to talk about that we're going to talk about the
00:09weather for the rest of the week. There has been a yellow weather warning
00:12issued for Thursday this week that being September 26th so this comes straight
00:18after the amber weather warning we had over the weekend for the pretty nasty
00:22rain we had then as well but we've got another one coming on the way yellow
00:25weather warning in place for Thursday. This is brought about by some extremely
00:29heavy rain that's going to arrive overnight on Wednesday essentially
00:32starting at around the 10 o'clock kind of area 10 p.m. area on Wednesday we
00:38should be getting some heavy rain in Sheffield which will then just downpour
00:40into the early hours of Thursday at which point it will then just carry on
00:44at a less intense but just as persistent level for the whole of Thursday
00:48according to the Met Office. So the situation is that we might have a pretty
00:52waterlogged area already and then some rain falling on top of that hence the
00:56yellow weather warning. There's the usual guidance that might be power cuts
01:01there might be some disruption to roads for example. Another aspect of this
01:06they're saying is that it's going to get slightly chillier as the end of the week
01:10goes on as well the average temperature on Thursday expected to be around the
01:1412th sort of area combined with some possible winds of up to 30 miles per
01:17hour that could lead to what is going to be a fairly wet cold blustery autumnal
01:24Thursday coming for us certainly a bit of pretty rotten weather here for
01:28Sheffield. That's the situation yellow weather warning for Thursday and pretty
01:33much more torrential rain to come is the scene. That said that is just the
01:37forecast for the meantime we'll be able to bring you more on this as the week
01:39goes on and the situation may develop but we'll bring you more on this as the
01:43week develops and we'll tell you more on Wednesday no doubt.
