Attention all in Wales! 🌧️ Natural Resources Wales (NRW) has issued flood alerts for three areas, so keep those wellies handy. High tides mixed with rainy weather pose a flooding risk, especially around Swansea Bay, Pembrokeshire Coast, and the Gower Peninsula.
Here’s the scoop:
– **Swansea Bay & Gower Peninsula**: Flood alerts are on for coastal areas and low-lying lands. Be cautious around beaches, promenades, and estuaries through Thursday.
– **Pembrokeshire Coast**: Prepare for potential flooding from tonight until Thursday morning. Stay safe on coastal paths and roads.
– **North Gower Coast**: Risk of flooding alerts stand between Llangennith and Pontarddulais, and similar conditions are forecast in Pembrokeshire between St Dogmaels and Amroth.
And for Tenby, a weekend alert remains as rivers are above normal levels. Restrictions at the tidal outfall mean river levels in the River Ritec may stay high. Expect to see water levels rise slightly with each high tide.
Weather-wise, this week looks like a mixed bag. Rain is pushing north, bringing heavy bouts and strong winds, but temperatures are a bit warmer at around 7 °C. Snow might even make a (brief) appearance later in the week!
Heads up: Tuesday is shaping up to be a dreary day, with rain and heavy clouds. Wednesday promises a peek of brightness before turning unsettled again. By week’s end, it’s looking chillier and windy.
Remember to take precautions and stay updated as this wet weather unfolds. Stay safe, everyone! 🌧️🌊
