RESIDENTS of Wales are not particularly alarmed at the prospect of heavy rain, it has emerged.
The Met Office has issued storm warnings across the British Isles, including Wales where it has rained more or less relentlessly since records began.
Swansea resident Wayne Hayes said: “Rain is our way of life. If you’d told me it wasn’t going to rain, then I might be worried.”
Welsh hill farmer Roy Hobbs said: “Luckily my sheep are already covered in thick, oily pelts perfectly designed to keep out water. That’s just how they’ve evolved over our several million years of rain.
“And I own a coat and a hat, so we’re pretty much set up I think.”
