The yellow weather warning covers most parts of Wales
Heavy rain in Wales could lead to flooding and travel disruption, the Met Office has said.
It has brought forward a yellow weather warning to 09:00 GMT on Thursday to last until the weekend.
Most of north, mid and south Wales, fall under the weather warning.
Natural Resources Wales (NRW) warned coastal areas, Snowdonia and northern parts of Ceredigion could be hard hit, with "potential for large waves" due to wind gusts of up to 60mph (95km/h).
There is also the possibility of localised flooding affecting roads.
