Another storm is on the way

Dennis has just been named by the Met Office.

With many still recovering from Ciara, the Exeter-based forecaster has just named the next storm due to hit Devon this weekend. 

Storm Dennis will bring widespread strong winds and heavy rain.

A yellow weather warning for wind has just been issued. It covers all of Devon between midday and midnight on Saturday (15th February).

A second yellow weather warning for rain is in force between midday on Saturday and midday on Sunday (16th February). 

The Met Office says it expects to issue further warnings in the coming days. 

Steve Ramsdale, Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office said: “Another spell of very wet and windy ​weather is expected for Saturday, although Storm Dennis is currently not expected to be as severe as Ciara disruption is still likely. Our confidence in the forecast means we have been able to issue severe weather warnings well in advance, giving people time to prepare for potential impacts of the storm."
