Storm Kathleen is the eleventh named storm of the 2023-24 season, making it the joint most stormy interval since storms started to be named in 2015.
Spring or April storms aren’t widespread both.
Since 2015 there has solely been one UK named storm in April – Storm Hannah in 2019.
It was a moist winter and we now have had a moist begin to this 12 months which means the bottom may be very saturated and delicate to additional rainfall.
In components of southern England, the Midlands and south Wales there was over twice the common March rainfall.
We have now not too long ago had quite a few areas of low stress bringing rain throughout the UK.
