ESSEX could be bit by heavy rain and strong winds this weekend as a storm sweeps across the south-east of England.
The Met Office has issued a weather warning, valid from midnight until 3pm on Sunday, as Storm Angus moves across the region.
Gusts of up to 55mph inland and 65mph near the coast are being anticipated when the storm arrives.
The Met Office forecast adds: "Please be aware of the risk of difficult driving conditions due to localised surface water flooding and possible debris from trees.
"A vigorous area of low pressure, now named Storm Angus, will move northeast across southern and south-east England on Sunday.
"Conditions are expected to improve from the west during the late morning and early afternoon."
