BBC Wales' Edward Bevan:
"The weather again played havoc with Glamorgan's hopes of winning their second Championship match this season.
"Play did resume at 3.30 and, although Michael Hogan quickly removed Greg Smith, the rain returned and the game was abandoned.
"Glamorgan will feel disappointed, especially after completely dominating the first two days.
"They now have a nine-day break before they play their next game, against Somerset in the YB40."
