Pictures have shown the heavy localised flooding in Cardiff after the dry spell that saw drought declared for many parts of Wales gives way to heavy downpours and thunderstorms. Yellow weather warnings were issued for parts of Wales on Monday as thunderstorms and lightning struck.
After last night's heavy downpour and thunderstorms, photos have been shared on social media of flooding on two Cardiff Roads. Two photographs posted to a community group on Facebook showed the aftermath of the heavy rain, with water gathering under the bridge on Lowther Road in the Cathays area of the city. It came as loud thunder was heard across the city which you can watch here.
There was also flooding on the nearby Salisbury Road, with three people pictured up to their knees in water, trying to assist a driver who had started driving into the flooded area. However, by midnight, the flood appeared to have cleared.
