Remnants of tropical Storm Henri are set to sweep across the country and unleash devastating gales and torrential downpours.
Weather experts are advising Britons to prepare for the worst, with 70mph gusts and floods threatening coastal regions.
The "wild weather" will throw the relatively calm start to autumn into chaos.
Britain's coastal regions are preparing for double the normal rainfall this week, which could trigger dangerous floods.
Parts of Storm Henri, which is hurtling across the Atlantic, will be pulled into the UK by an unusually strong jet stream.

Met Office forecaster Emma Sharples said: "A band of rain moves through the UK on Monday and it is looking very unsettled with gales in exposed coasts especially in the south.
"We are keeping an eye on what tropical storm Henri will do as there is another unsettled weather system piggy-backing into the UK.
"The track and timings of the low are still uncertain but it is likely we will be issuing warnings as this becomes clearer.
