    After a warm and settled spell brought blue skies and sunshine to much of the country to-day things are about to go downhill. Forecasters warn two major storms threaten to crash into the UK next week with rain and wind picking up from tomorrow night. Swathes of Britain are on alert for severe gales to unleash 70mph gusts with more than double the normal rainfall forecast. A deep low pressure system will be bolstered by the remnants of Tropical Storm Henri cur-rently charging across the Atlantic.
