Strong winds, heavy rain and some snow is expected over the next 24 hours
The Met Office has issued a number of weather warnings as Storm Darragh approaches the UK, including a rare red alert for wind.
Welsh Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca-Davies has warned there may be very significant impacts from the storm and urged people to take extreme care this weekend. "Red warnings are issued when there is a potential threat to life, and therefore it is essential that people in Wales heed the warnings and take very great care if they are travelling on Saturday," he said.
Red is the most serious weather warning the Met Office can issue. It means dangerous weather is expected and people are urged to take action to keep themselves and others safe.
