🌧️🚗🌊 Heads up, Swansea! Cwmbwrla Roundabout is still underwater after intense flash flooding over the weekend. Floodwaters have left a trail of floating cars and chaos, and the roundabout remains closed for the second day running.
South Wales Police have set up diversions via Pentregethin Road, urging drivers to avoid the area and stay patient as efforts continue to manage the situation. With a yellow weather warning for wind still in place, locals are urged to brace for more wet and windy conditions.
The Met Office forecasts severe gales, especially in coastal and upland areas on Monday, with temperatures hovering around a chilly 16°C. Though there’s some promise of sunshine, scattered showers are likely to persist, making the early part of the week a washout.
Looking forward to Tuesday? Expect a bit of a break from the wet weather with more sun peeking through, although a few showers could still make an appearance. As the week progresses, the weather is set to remain changeable, so keep those umbrellas handy!
Stay safe on the roads and keep updated on the conditions. Avoid Cwmbwrla Roundabout for now, and look out for breakdown recovery teams if you’re driving through affected areas. Let’s get through these blustery times together! 💨☔🌈
