Met Office forecaster Craig Snell said: “To sum up the bank holiday weekend, it’s going to be pretty unsettled; there will be some sunny moments in between if you can dodge the downpours. A Met Office yellow warning for thunderstorms has been issued until 2100 on Friday Friday started with two Environment Agency flood warnings , external and over 20 flood alerts in parts of the Midlands, with the risk of more heavy rain bringing the risk of more flash flooding.
