Use of 'Mae'

In normal conversation do people in N Wales normally omit the ‘Mae’ if they want to say quickly “Awful weather isn’t it?” e.g. Tywydd ofnadwy, ty’dy? :

In the same way that “it’s” was dropped in your english sentence, yes I believe so.

I don’t think it’s unique to the North either

Yes I think so, throughout Wales when being informal.
You ok? ; Ti’n iawn?

Edit: Sorry, it would have been “Rwyt”, not “Mae” that was dropped that time, but hopefully I am making some sense.

All versions of the same, so good example

I don’t know about ‘normally’, but it’s common enough…
