Met Office weather forecast for Liverpool as flood alert in place across England

Flood alerts remain in place in some parts of the country as heavy rain continues to fall.

Parts of the north west could experience 'heavy showers' on Wednesday, as the gloomy August weather continues. However, Liverpool is expected to see a little bit of sunshine, with the worst of the rain ending by around lunchtime.

The Met Office predicts a fairly sunny weekend for Merseyside too, with high temperatures of 20°C on both Saturday and Sunday.
