Heavy showers and thunderstorms could cause travel disruption and flooding across most of Wales.

A yellow warning has been issued by the Met Office for between 12:00 and 21:00 BST on Tuesday.

Forecasters said lightning strikes and flooding meant there was a "a chance of delays and some cancellations to train and bus services".

"Spray and sudden flooding could lead to difficult driving conditions and some road closures," they added.

There is also a "slight chance" that homes and businesses could be affected by power cuts.

The warning also mentioned a small risk of damage to buildings from floodwater, lightning strikes, hail or strong winds.

The yellow warning for thunderstorms covers all Welsh counties except Anglesey and Flintshire.
