A huge downpour caused floods across the Amman, Towy and Swansea valleys on Monday.

This followed the Met Office’s yellow weather warning of thunderstorms for yesterday evening (September 5).

In Ammanford, fire crews were called to Betws to pump out a property, while the Heol Y Garn road between Betws and Garnswllt was underwater.
