A 30-hour weather warning has been issued by the Met Office for the South West.
Somerset is one of the regions that will be impacted by heavy rain and strong winds as part of the storm.
The yellow weather warning has been in effect from 12pm on Tuesday (November 11) and is in place until 6pm, Wednesday 12.
The Met Office have warned that strong southerly winds will create difficult driving conditions and could lead to flooding in the area.
The weather service have said that although wind and rain will likely ease later Tuesday evening, persistent and heavy rain could continue overnight and through much of Wednesday.
60-80 mm of rain is expected to build up in the wettest spots as part of the downpour.
A spokesperson for The Met Office advised: "Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit.
"Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary."

The earlier rain warning has been upgraded to a dual wind/rain warning due to the strong winds that battered the southern coasts and some hills on Tuesday afternoon.
Somerset is one of the many areas impacted by the yellow weather warning across the UK.
The Met Office are also predicting snow to hit the nation later in the week as well as at the end of the month.
