The Met Office has issued a weather warning for Herefordshire, with more than an inch of rain possible in just an hour in some places, with thunderstorms forecast in parts of the county later today.

The Met Office says that most places will miss the downpours, but places that do get hit by them could see thunder, lightning and localised flooding. 

The weather warning issued by the Met Office this morning for Herefordshire says:

“Heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected to break out from late morning. Many places will miss these, but where they do occur, 20-30 mm rain may fall in 1-2 hours. 

“Showers and thunderstorms will mostly die out by early evening.”
