Up in the Mach/Aberhosan district they had a fair night and early morning.
From Lampeter up past Llanrhystud and down South to near Cardigan there were
areas where heavy rain did not stop from around 6pm Monday to past 4pm
Tuesday.
I was in contact with someone in Lower Cwmtwrch/Ystradgynlais area at around
10am Tuesday and he had a 'normally' wet night and dry morning, yet there
were stories of severe flooding in the area and down to Neath by tea time.
Mind you, he was a fair way up the hill and not down in the valley. That
contraflow over the river in Cwmtwrch must be a sight to behold when the
river is at its angriest.


Indeed. Does it still run across the road or did the recent works fix that?
