THUNDERSTORMS are likely across Devon from early tomorrow morning (Wednesday).

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning covering Teignbridge and the rest of the South West from 5am to 11am.

A spokesperson said: ‘An area of thunderstorms will move northwards into southwestern parts of the UK on Wednesday morning.

‘Lightning is likely to be the main hazard from this though some heavy rain and hail is possible, with perhaps 15 to 20 mm of rain in a short period for some spots.

‘The nature of thunderstorms is that many areas will see little or no rain and miss the lightning but where they do occur the increased numbers of people makes disruption more likely.’
