No severe weather warnings in force

The Met Office has no yellow, amber or red warnings active across the UK right now. We check the feed regularly and this page updates when that changes.

What the colours mean

Met Office warnings run yellow (be aware — some disruption possible), amber (be prepared — likely disruption and some risk to life) and red (take action — dangerous weather, significant risk to life). A warning combines how bad the weather could be with how likely it is. When one's in force, the Emergency Alerts system may also send a message to phones in the worst-affected areas.
