More strong winds could be on the way, as Wales braces for Storm Jocelyn.
Two overlapping yellow warnings for high winds have been issued by the Met Office.
One is in place from midday on Tuesday until 15:00 GMT on Wednesday, while another is from 16:00 on Tuesday until 13:00 on Wednesday.
Gusts of up to 70mph (112 km/h) are expected, leading to power cuts and more disruption to travel, forecasters have said.
The first warning covers Blaenau Gwent, Bridgend, Caerphilly, Cardiff, Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Merthyr Tydfil, Monmouthshire, Neath Port Talbot, Newport, Pembrokeshire, Powys, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Swansea, Torfaen and Vale of Glamorgan.
Peak gusts of 45-55mph (162-198 km/h) are "likely" inland, according to forecasters, with up to 65mph (234 km/h) on some exposed coasts.
The second warning applies to Ceredigion, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Isle of Anglesey, Powys and Wrexham.
These areas could see gusts of up to 70mph (252 km/h), with the Met office warning that "power cuts may occur, with the potential to affect other services, such as mobile phone coverage".
"Any remaining recovery efforts off the back of Storm Isha are likely to be hampered," it said.
The Met office also warned there could be closures of some roads and bridges, "blocked by fallen trees and other debris, among other potential travel disruption.
"Road, rail, air and ferry services may be affected, with longer journey times and cancellations possible," it said.
Storm Jocelyn will be the 10th named storm in five months.
It follows hot on the heels of Storm Isha, which left thousands of homes across Wales without power and brought gusts of up to 90mph (144km/h).
