Flood warnings across parts of Wrexham have been issued, with heavy rain causing river levels to rise.

Natural Resources Wales have today issued a flood warning for the areas surrounding the Lower Dee Valley from Llangollen to Trevalyn Meadows.

Details released by NRW state: “River levels are above normal but flooding of property is not expected at the moment. Flood defences are now in operation and the situation on site is being monitored. River levels at Farndon are expected to peak later on this afternoon/early evening. In addition to the area detailed, some localised flooding problems may result from surface water.”

A further flood alert has been issued around the Bowling Bank / Cross Lanes area, with a risk of some localised flooding around the area.

The flood warning comes as a result of the heavy rain experience across the past few days, with more bad weather forecast throughout the rest of the week.
