Devon and Cornwall brace for the impact of Storm Ingrid, with multiple flood warnings in place. The Met Office has issued a yellow warning for rain, predicting flooding and transport disruptions. The Great Western Railway (GWR) has announced that the line between Exeter St Davids and Plymouth will remain closed until at least 14:00 due to concerns over the track at Dawlish, where waves are breaching the sea wall. The Environment Agency has issued flood warnings across the south Devon and south Cornwall coasts, indicating that flooding is expected. This is only the second time a black alert has been issued since a storm destroyed sections of the track around Dawlish in February 2014. The sea wall will be inspected in daylight once the storm has passed. But here's where it gets controversial: while the authorities are taking necessary precautions, some argue that more could be done to prevent such incidents. What do you think?
