A yellow weather warning for heavy rain across Herefordshire has been extended until this evening.

Forecasters at the Met Office said rain will be heavy at times and perhaps become more prolonged to give 3-6 hours of rain.

Most places within the warning area will see 10-15 mm of rainfall, but a few places could see 30-40 mm with this falling onto already saturated ground.

Lightning and gusty winds are likely to be additional hazards, with a small chance of gusts around 50 mph in a few places.

The warning was orginally in place until 2pm but has now been extended until 6pm.
