HEAVY rain and lightning could cause disruption this morning after the Met Office issued a Yellow Warning across Teignbridge.

The alert covers from 11am today (Wednesday) to 9pm tonight.

A Met Office spokesperson said: ‘An area of showers will move northwards across southwest England and south Wales on Wednesday.

‘Whilst many areas will see little rainfall there is the chance of some heavy and thundery downpours developing, particularly late in the afternoon.

‘Where these occur 30 to 50mm of rain could fall in less than three hours though only a few spots would likely see these totals.

‘Lightning may also be a hazard during the day.’
