UK Christmas getaway to see heavy rain hit the country as millions hit the roads

Hopes for a white Christmas are fading after weather forecasters predicted brighter conditions ahead of December 25.

Heavy downpours are expected this weekend when millions of cars will hit the roads ahead of what is set to be the busiest Christmas getaway on record.

The Met Office said heavy rain this weekend could make conditions worse in areas already at risk of flooding. On Friday afternoon, it had 36 flood warnings and 167 flood alerts in place across England.

The AA has predicted the upward trend of people going away for Christmas will continue, with 24.4 million cars expected on UK roads on Friday afternoon as schools close for the holidays.
