THUNDER storms and heavy showers are on the way to Teignbridge this afternoon.

The Met Office has issued a Yellow Warning covering from 11am to 8pm for today (Friday) telling people to expect some disruption, especially to transport.

A spokesperson for the service said: ‘Heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop quite quickly later on Friday morning, but peaking during the afternoon for many, before probably becoming more restricted to the southeast and south coastal counties towards evening.

‘Some places will miss the heavier rain, but other locations could see around 20 mm within an hour and perhaps 30 to 40 mm in around three hours, sufficient to cause issues on the roads.’
