The warning covers parts of south and mid-Wales from Newport to Brecon and is in place between 3pm today (February 23) until 6am on Monday.
The Met Office said heavy rain was "likely to cause some flooding and disruption later today and overnight into Monday".
It added that "fast flowing or deep floodwater is likely, causing danger to life", as well as possible "delays and some cancellations to train and bus services".
The weather service said there was also a "good chance some communities will be cut off by flooded roads" and that "homes and businesses are likely to be flooded, causing damage to some buildings".
The Met Office previously said that the UK was expected to see "severe weather" throughout Sunday.
A yellow warning for wind has been issued for areas including Shropshire and mid-Wales.
The warning is in place between 6am and 6pm on Sunday.
Severe weather conditions are expected to ease on Sunday night, with conditions to improve in the following days.
Zoe Hutin, a meteorologist at the Met Office, said there was "quite severe weather coming in from the west" with "very strong winds" and Sunday looked "to be the worst day in the coming few days".
