Another severe weather warning has been issued for Cornwall for periods of heavy rain will bring the possibility of some disruption, particularly to transport.

The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for South West England for heavy rain between 2am on Thu, Feb 8 and 6am on Fri, Feb 9.

It warns that bus and train services will probably be affected with journey times taking longer while spray and flooding on roads will probably make journey times longer. Flooding of a few homes and businesses is possible.

The Met Office says a couple of bands of rain, heavy in places, will push northwards across southern England and south Wales during Thursday and early on Friday.

Whilst a drier interlude is likely for a time during the middle part of Thursday, many places in the warning area will see 15-25 mm of rain accumulate during this period.

However, some higher ground areas of southern England and south Wales could see as much as 35-45 mm of rain.

The Met Office warns that people should check if their property could be at risk of flooding and if so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit.

To avoid delays checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary.

Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.
