Those affected are urged to be aware of potential travel disruption and flooding as a result of the forecast downpours.
Chief meteorologist Neil Armstrong said: “30 to 40mm of rain is expected to fall in some areas, and where it falls over ground already wet from recent rainfall as well as fallen leaves there may be spray and flooding on the roads as well as travel delays.”.
The Met Office warns delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport are likely while short-term loss of power is also a possibility.
Mr Armstrong added: “Much of the UK can expect a spell of strong southerly winds on Wednesday, but the warning area highlights where gusts of up to 65mph will be and therefore where there are likely to be some travel delays.”
