Southampton is set to be battered by heavy rain and showers this weekend as Storm Bert hits.
From 6am on Saturday until 11.45pm on Sunday, the Met Office has put a yellow warning for rain in place as the city is set to experience heavy downpours.
Drivers are being warned to allow additional journey time as they could face heavy traffic in the wet conditions.

A spokesperson for the Met Office said: "Heavy rain associated with Storm Bert may cause some travel disruption and flooding this weekend.
"Accumulations of 50-75 mm are expected to fall fairly widely during this time.
"Rain is expected to develop during Saturday morning across southern England, becoming particularly heavy and persistent overnight and into Sunday."
The latest warning comes after the city was hit by snow storms on Thursday morning.
