The Independent solicits donations to fund on-the-ground journalism covering reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, enabling investigations and documentaries while keeping reporting freely accessible without paywalls. Donations support sending journalists to speak to both sides and maintain trust across the political spectrum. A deluge of showers will move over the UK in coming days, with a band of rain moving eastwards on Tuesday bringing scattered showers to northern regions and Scotland. Heavier showers will hit Wednesday, moving east to west and producing rainfall up to 32mm an hour in places. Scattered showers, possible thunderstorms and gusty winds are likely through the rest of the week, and temperatures will fall from around 25C to below the 20s as September begins. Remnants of Hurricane Erin may help drive the change.
Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
Met Office forecasts show a band of rain moving eastwards across most of the UK on Tuesday, which will bring scattered showers to more northern regions and Scotland. This will subside only briefly overnight, before heavier showers hit on Wednesday. Again moving from east to west, the rainfall is set to leave few places untouched as it reaches up to 32mm an hour in places. Scattered showers can then be expected throughout the rest of the week, especially in the West.
