More rain is on the way<\/p>\n

Storm Benjamin has battered the UK and while it seems the worst is over the Met Office<\/a> has warned that more rain is on the way.<\/p>\n

Conditions are set to remain unsettled next week, with chilly weather<\/a> expected to hit Greater Manchester. Saturday has seen mostly dry conditions with sunny spells, but feeling colder than Friday due to northerly winds.<\/p>\n

So far, it has been a crisp autumn day.<\/p>\n

It comes as some parts of the UK are expected to see flurries of snow and hail this weekend<\/a>. Wintry conditions are expected in parts of Scotland on Saturday night (October 26) and throughout Sunday.<\/p>\n

While Manchester is not expected to see any snow, cold conditions will continue.<\/p>\n
