STORM JONAS: Notts escapes weather warning... for now
But a spokesman for weather forecasters MeteoGroup says that the area is “on the borderline” of a warning.
The majority of regions across the UK have been issued with a yellow warning for rain, following the arrival of the remains of Storm Jonas from the USA.

The spokesman said: “Strong winds are going to remain in the East Midlands with outbreaks of rain.
“It is not quite persistent enough for a warning... but the region is right on the borderline of getting a yellow warning.”
The rest of the day is also expected to bring gusty winds across the region.
