The Met Office have issued a yellow weather warning for rain, which covers a large area of the UK, which includes Herefordshire.

The weather warning is in force between 6am on Thursday, July 6th and 6am on Friday, July 7th.

The Met office advises: "Isolated thunderstorms are likely to develop across parts of England and Wales from Thursday morning, before clearing east early on Friday.

"While these storms may miss many places, where they do develop, intense downpours are likely, bringing a low risk of sudden flooding of roads, transport routes, homes and businesses. Lightning and hail may be additional hazards."
