STORM Jorge is here and the Met Office yellow warning for rain will continue until 6am on Saturday morning, with 70mph winds also expected over the weekend.

Natural Resources Wales has already issued a flood alert for the Upper Teifi area.

A statement from NRW said: “The rainfall is forecast to continue overnight. The combination of ground conditions, existing river levels and forecast rainfall quantities gives a high risk of flooding of low-lying land over the weekend.

“We’re currently expecting wide-spread impacts from surface water and some impacts from river flooding from this afternoon. The river levels are likely to peak in the early hours of Saturday morning.

“The ground in many river catchments is already saturated so the rivers levels in steep sided valleys could rise quickly.

“If you receive a Flood Alert, please be prepared for flooding and keep an eye on the latest flood warnings and river levels near you on our website.

“If you receive a Flood Warning, take immediate action and put any flood protection equipment in place and move family, pets and valuables to a safe place.

“If you live in an area at flood risk and you haven’t already signed up to receive our free flood warnings, go to our website now. There is also advice and information on what to do before, during and after a flood

“Our teams will continue to monitor river levels and will issue alerts and warnings if necessary.”
