The UK's Met Office has issued yellow weather warnings for torrential rain as remnants of former hurricanes Lee and Nigel approach Britain. The southeast is expected to be worst hit overnight into Thursday with flooding risks. Warnings are also in place for heavy rain in northwest England and Wales until evening. Scotland faces high wind alerts. It follows intense weekend rainfall that forced closures. Though heavy thunderstorms may continue on Thursday and Friday, they are unlikely to be as severe. The warnings highlight risks as ex-hurricanes Lee and Nigel set to drench parts of the UK with intense downpours.
