The UK had its wettest day ever earlier this month - and more rain will come later in October after a fine weekend. Storm Alex brought enough rain to fill Loch Ness on Saturday October 3, the Met Office said.

Data from the national weather service show the day after the storm was the wettest day in records dating back to 1891. Rainfall was widespread, with an average of 31.7mm (1.25 inches) falling across the whole of the UK and beating the previous record of 29.8mm (1.17 inches) on August 25, 1986.

And more wet and windy weather will continue to hit in the latter stages of October, albeit after a fine and dry weekend. The odd shower may hit on Saturday and Sunday, but most of the country will enjoy clear skies and sunshine.
