The Met Office has issued an update to its weather warning for Herefordshire, with up to 40mm of rain possibly falling in some parts of the county later today.

The Met Office warning says:

“Heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected to break out this afternoon and evening, perhaps merging to give longer spells of rain in places, more especially later this afternoon and this evening.

“Torrential downpours are expected at times with 15-30 mm rain falling in an hour or so in some spots and 30-40 mm perhaps building up over 2 or 3 hours in a few places. These showers will then fade during the course of this evening, but only slowly in some areas, especially over south Wales, the West Country and south Midlands.”
