The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for rain covering North and South East Cornwall.
The weather warning, which comes into force at 9pm tonight (January 13) and lasts until 12pm tomorrow (January 14) warns of heavy rain set to sweep the region.
It comes merely two days after a previous weather warning for heavy rain saw lashed Cornwall through the night – leading to the Environment Agency issuing a flood alert for the Upper Tamar region, including Bude and Launceston.
The Met Office is warning that heavy rain forecast brings the chance of some flooding and disruption through the night and tomorrow morning.
It says that people living in North and South East Cornwall can expect to see a flooding of a few homes and businesses being likely, an impact on bus and train services with journey times taking longer, spray and flooding on roads impacting on driving conditions and journey times and the potential for interruption to power supplies and other services likely.
