Bus and train services may also be affected, leading to longer journey times.
Met Office meteorologist Alex Deakin said the rain will be a cause for concern “because the ground is saturated in places”.
“That is likely to cause some issues, so there is a warning in place,” he said.
Temperatures will be mild at between 11C-13C across most of the country on Wednesday.
However, temperatures will then drop to between 7C-10C on Thursday as wind from the north Atlantic sweeps away the rain clouds.
Earlier in the week, the weather will be dry and fairly cloudy on Monday night, with a band of rain spreading south-eastwards through the day on Tuesday.
