Heavy rain warnings have been issued in Wales until Tuesday.

In the North, Eryri could see up to 12 cms of rain, and South Wales could face nearly a month's worth of rain in a day.

Authorities are advising households at risk to prepare for flooding by moving valuables and cars to a higher location and staying away from swollen riverbanks.

Richard Preece, Natural Resources Wales’s Duty Tactical Manager, said:  “The Amber and Yellow rain warnings in place from the early hours of Monday are expected to bring significant impacts across Wales. With rivers already swollen and the ground saturated, we expect to see a number of flood alerts and warnings issued, with flood warnings indicating flooding is expected.

“We’re urging people to be vigilant and to make preparations for potential flooding. You can check if you live in an area at risk of flooding on our website and sign up for our free flood warning service. 

“Our thoughts are with those communities who have recently been impacted, and they could potentially be impacted again during this event.

“If flooding is forecast in your area, we want to make sure people are doing all they can to keep themselves safe. Think about preparing a flood kit with any important documents and medication, moving your car to higher ground and moving treasured possessions upstairs or to a higher place.  

“We do not provide flood warnings for flooding from surface water, so it’s important for everyone to know their flood risk. 

“Keep an eye on weather forecasts and visit our website for latest information on the flood warnings, and find practical advice on what to do before, during and after a flood.”
