Coventry Telegraph reports . . . .

 

The wet weather is causing problems on the roads of Coventry and Warwickshire today.

One lane of the M6 near Rugby had to be closed this morning due to flooding, just minutes before a crash on the same stretch of the motorway.

The collision happened on the northbound side between junction 1 for Rugby and junction 2 for Walsgrave at around 9.30am.

Highways Agency crews are at the scene having just coned off the inside lane of the motorway near J1 due to the flooding.

Drivers are being urged to take care on the roads across the region as the rain continues.

The Met Office says that there will be no let-up from the rain until this afternoon when we may see a few hours grace from around 3pm, before the heavens open once more.

There are likely to be some showers throughout the night, although forecasters are predicting some clear spells which could see the temperatures drop down to around 9C.

Tuesday is set to see some improvement with sunny intervals breaking through the cloud cover, with a handful of scattered heavy showers thrown in during the latter part of the day.

Wouldn't go by the met office tbf. They have got it wrong last couple of weeks.

It was predicted heavy rain all day yesterday and we only had around 2 hours worth and then sun.

 

BBC weather usually quite accurate but depends how much rain has already hit the track.

Yes it's still raining here. Meant to be dry after 1pm. It depends if the track was packed in advance and how much rain the track can take before then

Blinking met office no wonder BBC gave them the hook!

I tend to use one from Norway, normally a lot more accurate than the BBC.
