Flood warning issued as dozens of flood alerts are in place in Wales due to heavy rain

There are several flood alerts and one more serious flood warning in place across Wales after the Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for heavy rain. The warning is in place from 2am on Wednesday, December 28 to 3pm on the same day and covers a large part of the south of the country including areas like Cardiff, Newport and Swansea.

There are flood alerts in place for a number of waterways and some roads have been closed due to flooding. One lane of the M4 eastbound near J43 was closed on Wednesday morning due to flooding but there was no disruption to traffic. In north Wales, the A499 was also partially blocked in both directions due to flooding.

This afternoon a flood warning was issued for the River Towy, for isolated properties between Llandeilo and Abergwili.
