Aberystwyth, Wales, United Kingdom Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

Information on update: The impact level has been increased to high, while the warning area has been extended to include parts of Ceredigion and remove parts of the south coast. An area of heavy rain is expected to move over south Wales between late Sunday and late Monday. Whilst rainfall amounts will vary, some heavy and persistent rainfall is likely to fall, especially over high ground, for example Bannau Brycheiniog. Rain should clear to the east Monday night. 

20-40 mm of rain will fall extensively across the wider region, but 60-80 mm is expected to accumulate over some south- and southwest-facing high ground in south Wales, with a few places perhaps seeing nearer 100-120 mm. In addition to the potential for flooding impacts, this increases the chance of landslides on both natural and infrastructure slopes..

Strong south to southwesterly winds will also accompany the heavy rain, with gales possible around coasts and over high ground.
