🌧️ Dramatic Flooding Hits Wales 🌧️
Wales has been battered by relentless rain, causing rivers to overflow and fields to become sprawling lakes. With over 40 flood alerts in effect today, dramatic scenes have unfolded across the country. Fire crews have been busy rescuing drivers stranded in their vehicles, and areas like Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire have faced the brunt of the weather with severe flood warnings in place.
The Cresselly Arms pub in Pontargothi found itself underwater, with water smashing through windows as fire crews worked tirelessly to pump it out. Unfortunately, Cwmbwrla Roundabout in Swansea has flooded again, leading authorities to close it for an indefinite period.
In the picturesque Tywi Valley, lush green fields have transformed into vast lakes, capturing the breadth of the impact. Roads near Llandeilo and Llandovery have become treacherous, with vehicles carefully navigating flooded sections.
These weather events have affected not only properties and roads but also local football pitches and popular dog walking spots, all now submerged. Stay safe, everyone—it’s weather to be wary of! 🌊🚗
