There is also a yellow weather warning in place stretching from the Midlands, up through northern England, North Wales and into Scotland. The weather warning will be in place from 11am to 9pm tomorrow.
The damp conditions will persist into Tuesday but the latest eather maps indicate slightly improved conditions during the middle of the week.
WXCharts data shows the heavy rain and storms that have hammered the UK this weekend should eventually clear late on Wednesday, making way for much brighter weather in the second half of the week.
The north-west coast of Scotland may see some showers, as may the Norfolk coast, however the rest of the country should remain fine and dry on July 23.
The Met Office’s weather forecast for Tuesday until Thursday states: “Sunny spells and scattered showers remain the theme this week as low pressure continues to bring unsettled conditions.
“Less showers, more sunshine by Thursday, with temperatures around the seasonal average.”
Looking ahead to the period of July 25 until August 3, the Met Office forecasts: “By the weekend, a weather regime dominated by westerly winds is likely to become established.
“While showers or longer spells of rain will remain possible for all parts of the country, the focus of wet weather is expected to be across the west and northwest, especially over hills where rain could be prolonged.
“The highest chance of drier and sunnier weather can be expected to the east of hills, and across southern and eastern areas, and maybe later in the period if high pressure tries to build into the southwest.
“It will be breezy at times, especially further north. Temperatures are most likely to be near to average for the time of year, with only a small chance of hot spells during late July and the start of August.”
