🌧️⚠️ Heads up, Wales! The Met Office has issued an amber weather warning due to expected heavy rain, with six areas on high alert: Bridgend, Carmarthenshire, Neath Port Talbot, Pembrokeshire, Rhondda Cynon Taf, and Swansea. Up to 100mm of rain is likely, starting from 3am Monday and ending at 9pm. Given the already saturated ground, there’s a danger of flooding that can affect homes, transport, and power supplies. If you can, keep travel to a minimum and ensure you’re prepared with a flood kit including essentials like important documents, a torch, first aid supplies, and warm clothing.
