Torrential downpours could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures.
A Met Office spokesman: "There is a small chance homes and businesses could be flooded, causing damage to some buildings and a small chance fast flowing or deep floodwater could cause a danger to life.
"Where flooding occurs, there is a slight chance of delays or cancellations to train and bus services.
"Some communities could become cut off by flooded roads and there is a slight chance of power cuts and loss of other services to some homes and businesses."
Highways England is working closely with the Met Office in monitoring the weather conditions.
