Region: Wales

A band of heavy rain and squally winds will move east across South Wales and southwest England early on Thursday morning, with further heavy rain at times until early afternoon. Some places will see 10-15 mm of rain within 2 hours and a few places could have 20-30 mm of rain during the period of the warning. What should I do? Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area
