Forecasters have warned of a cold, wet and windy end to the week for Suffolk as temperatures dip to the low teens.

The county has already been hit with heavy rain this morning – although more is set to come as the late summer sunshine comes to an end.

Phil Garner, meteorologist at East Anglia-based Weatherquest, said temperatures today will reach a maximum of 16C, while scattered showers could continue throughout the rest of the day.

Mr Garner added: “Tomorrow is going to be a poor day with brisk morning rain.

“Winds will get strong – gale force in some areas – and rain will continue on and off throughout the day.

“It will be cloudier in the eastern parts of the region with temperatures reaching 13C or 14C – but with northerly winds it is going to feel quite cold.”

Looking ahead to the weekend, Mr Garner said it will be a damp start with showers possible throughout a breezy Saturday and Sunday.
