MET Office Weather Warning

People of Britain, do not be alarmed. That wet stuff falling from the sky is called Rain, details of exactly what it is can be provided by Grandparents or older relatives.
You may notice that during or after a period of 'rain', things will be wet and there may be small pools of water outside, these are called puddles which should not be stepped in unless you are wearing suitable footwear.
Unfortunately, 'rain' does come with the risk of frizzy hair if it gets wet, suede shoes being ruined, white t-shirts and blouses becoming transparent and having to run from one place of shelter to the next, if you have not run for a long time then you may find breathlessness follows as a result.    
Garden's and grass areas may become a vibrant green instead of the usual dull brown you are used to but this is only a temporary measure and will return back to brown once the 'rain' has ceased falling on them.
Finally, do not attempt to drink the rain-water as it will need to be cleaned by your Local Water Authority to make it safe to drink before they return some of it to your taps for consumption and allow the rest to seep out through old pipes.
Please keep up to date with weather warnings for your area through the MET website, social media and your local TV and Radio stations.
