The River Taff has burst its banks in several areas of Cardiff and the river level in Pontypridd is alarmingly high. Over 20 flood warnings have been issued across the country.

There are also 43 flood alerts in place, warning that flooding is possible. Meanwhile roads have been closed as a result of fallen trees as strong winds and heavy rain continue to batter Wales. Rhondda Cynon Taf council has urged people to only drive if "absolutely necessary" due to hazardous driving conditions and surface water across the borough.
