Severe weather warnings have been issued for “large swathes” of Wales and many other parts of the UK this weekend ahead of the arrival of Storm Bert.

Described as a “multi-hazard event”, the storm will bring heavy rain, snow and strong winds from early Saturday and into Sunday.

The Met Office is predicting gusts of up to 50-60mph (80-96km/h) and has urged people to prepare for potential flooding in some areas.
