A high street in Pontypridd, Wales is flooded, with cars forced to wade through flood waters next to abandoned shops

I live right across from a river, thankfully the banks were built up and reinforced last year, hopefully it holds out

There are so, so many roads flooded around here near Wrexham, North Wales. Where I am is quite lucky as we're quite high up from the river but nearby are very low (very hilly area, "valleys").

Bangor on Dee's huge racecourse is practically a lake and Llangollen's river is almost flowing into the town - I don't remember seeing it that high ever. And it's STILL pouring down with very strong winds...

Racecourse toay:

Johnson PM will not be going to Wales.
Of course Wales has its own Power,

Helen is a name that starts with an H. That's proper Helen, not fake Ellen
