The latest warning covers most of south and mid Wales and Gwynedd, Denbighshire and Wrexham in the north. It means that between 6am and 12pm on Sunday, three weather warnings will be in force at the same time.
According to the Met Office, which has issued all three warnings, we should expect “heavy rain and thawing snow leading to some flooding in places” on Sunday. The forecaster added: “Outbreaks of rain, heavy at times, are likely on Sunday. 15 to 25mm rainfall, combined with some thaw of lying snow, may lead to some flooding and travel disruption in places.
“Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. 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.”
As well as most of Wales, the new warning for rain covers the north west of England, Derbyshire, and the West Midlands.
