A good soaking over the next few days
Last year was drier than average in Wales. Dennis Smith from Llandeilo recorded just 39 inches of rain over 12 months but it's going to be anything but dry over the next few days...and we could expect to see up to 6 inches falling on higher ground.
It is however going to turn milder (which will help with the heating bills) but very wet at times with a risk of flooding.
The rain will be heaviest on high ground in the south and west and in Snowdonia. Rainfall totals between 75 to 150mm are possible. That's 3 to 6 inches and the Met Office has issued weather watches for the .
On Friday, the rain should clear bringing sunshine and showers in the afternoon.
Saturday will be mild but wet and windy with gales although the south east may well be drier.
So, most of us are in for a good soaking over the next few days with many rivers becoming swollen.
Hopefully you won't need it but the Floodline number may come in handy - 0845 988 1188, or visit the for details of any flood watches and flood warnings that are issued.
