October could be the wettest month in UK history after Storm Babet gave Brits a battering.
Wild weather is still to come after the storm, which has so far caused five fatalities, swept across the country. Weather warnings have finally ended after four days, with a rare red warning having been issued in eastern Scotland indicating a “danger to life”. The town of Brechin in Angus was evacuated entirely while streets across England were completely submerged.
This month has so far seen a staggering 196.4mm of rainwater come pouring down across the country. Forecasters warn there is still more to come as thunder, lightning and rain is predicted for some regions, meaning October could be in the running for wettest month in history.
