Again I'm gonna recommend waterproofs. More so than for London. Cardiff is on the Bristol Channel and close to the River Severn, both of which are currently leaving their riverbeds and flowing across farmland, streets, and ground floor rooms!

However, if you wait for a drier season I can strongly recommend it. The locals can speak English, but they usually pretend not to, just to piss tourists off! (Hint: make sure they are aware you are American. The Welsh hate Americans, but they hate the English even more, and you don't want to be mistaken for one of us just because you speak the same language, sort of.)

That would most certainly be enjoyable

ecchi, maybe you can ship some of that rain over here to California as we desperately need it.

Take all you want. Take all of it if you like. We have more than we need. In many places it is not only in the houses, but it is half way up the stairs. And the weather forecast is for even more to come!

It would be, and not only for the Dr Who Experience. I say some awful things about the Welsh people (mostly because they tend to say worse about the English) but they do have a beautiful country, particularly in the north. When I was younger we had several holidays there and I loved it. A couple of years ago my father moved up to Herefordshire, which is close to the Welsh border, so I now spend time in that area. It is well worth a visit.

But in the name of all that is holy, wait a while before going. Not only is a lot of Wales flooded at the moment, but the weather forecast is for more rain, gale force winds, and snow!
