Two people managed to escape from the car on a coastal road in Carmarthenshire before fire crews were called to rescue the third.

A flood warning has also been issued for the River Towy between Llandeilo and Abergwili in Carmarthenshire.

A swift water rescue team saved the man from a car along the A4066 between St Clears and Llanybri just before 16:00 on Sunday, Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service said.

The road was closed on both sides of the incident because of the flood water.

Flooding of a "few homes and businesses" was likely, along with spray and floods "making journey times longer", the Met Office said.
