    The north of the country is likely to experience the heaviest downpours, with the rain persisting for much of the day. With a maximum temperature of 19°C expected, the day is also forecasted to turn breezier as it progresses.

    As a result, residents are advised to stay cautious and prepare for potential disruptions due to the adverse weather conditions. As night falls, Newtown is unlikely to find respite from the rain, as heavy and persistent showers are predicted to continue.

    The northern areas are expected to bear the brunt of the rainfall, while the south may experience patchier showers by dawn.

    Despite the heavy downpours, temperatures are expected to remain rather mild, with a minimum of 11°C forecasted for tonight.

    Looking ahead to tomorrow, the forecast suggests a damp start in the north with outbreaks of rain, while the southern regions are anticipated to be drier yet cloudy. Although the day may start off breezy, the winds are predicted to ease as the day progresses, offering a slight reprieve from the inclement weather.
