Parts of Herefordshire could see further flooding, with heavy rain expected to hit the area on Sunday night and into Monday morning.

The area only covers the south of Herefordshire, with Ross-on-Wye covered by the warning. 

Hereford and Leominster are currently outside the warning area but are likely to see heavy rain at times.

The latest warning comes after more than a week of heavy downpours and flooding across Herefordshire.

The Met Office warning, which is valid from 4pm this afternoon (Sunday) to 9am tomorrow (Monday) says:

“Rain is expected to develop across southwest England and south Wales during Sunday morning, moving slowly east before rain gradually eases from the west during the second half of Sunday night.

“Much of the warning area is likely to see 20-30 mm fall over 9-12 hours, though some places may see 50-80 mm. 

“These higher accumulations are most likely across higher ground in south Wales, Dartmoor and the Dorset Downs.”
