More than 25 flood warnings have been issued for the UK before "monster" Storm Ciaran sweeps in.<\/p>\n

Multiple amber and yellow warnings are in place until Friday for strong winds and heavy rain. And the Met Office warns the storm could bring a "danger to life".<\/p>\n

The storm is expected to arrive in southwestern parts of England and Wales in the early hours of Thursday, before moving to the far south and southeast of England later in the day. Conditions are forecast to be unsettled in many parts of the UK on Wednesday even before the storm makes landfall.<\/p>\n

According to The Mirror, International forecasters have said Storm Ciar\u00e1n is being pushed towards Britain by a "wicked" and intensely powerful jet stream in the Atlantic.<\/p>\n

Jeff Beradelli, a US climate specialist who used to work for CBS News, said on X (formerly Twitter): "A monster 950mb storm Ciaran is heading for Europe with 'landfall' near the English Channel Wed-Thu. 950mb would be a near record low pressure for region (equiv cat 3 hurr pres). 80mph coast gusts \/35 ft+ waves. The storm is powered by a buckling, wicked 200 mb jet stream aloft.\u201d<\/p>\n

Forecaster also advises the latest rain could lead to disruption to roads and public transport while already flood-affected areas from Storm Babet could get worse.<\/p>\n
