Everyone at Glastonbury Festival 2022 has probably heard that a weather warning for thunderstorms has been issued by the Met Office.

The alert is in place between 10am and 11.59pm today (23 June), with storms and torrential downpours expected.

However, the area covered by the warning is very large - taking in more than half of England - and so the storms won't hit the whole area.

And in fact, no rain is forecast for Glastonbury on Thursday - with the chance of precipitation staying at just 10%.

But unfortunately that doesn't mean the festival will necessarily stay dry for the whole weekend.

The weather will be overcast on Friday, with the chance of rain rising to 20%.

But it's Saturday and Sunday when the rain looks most likely to hit - with a thunder shower forecast on the former and light showers predicted for the latter.
