It's in force until tomorrow evening [23 November]
Devon is in store for a wet start to the weekend after Exeter's Met Office issued a yellow warning for rain.
It comes into force from midday until 6pm on Saturday [23 November], with the agency warning the persistent rain will lead to "some flooding and disruption".
The warning also states:
- Flooding of a few homes and businesses is likely
- Bus and train services probably affected with journey times taking longer
- Spray and flooding on roads probably making journey times longer
- Some interruption to power supplies and other services likely
River levels are high after further rain in past few days, and the Environment Agency are expected to issue flood alerts over the course of the weather warning. Updates can be found here.
Heavy and persistent rain will linger across parts of the southwest through today and tomorrow, bringing the risk of localised flooding and travel disruption #WeatherAware pic.twitter.com/XOiLF8EBoX
