Meteorologist Helen Roberts said: 'There has been quite a wide-ranging spread of places where we had heavy rainfall, but we had a reasonably significant volume in Wattisham.

'For Wales, the 30.6mm was not that significant because the monthly average is 162mm. Most places saw some rain in the last 24 hours, and there is likely to be more on the way.'
