Glastonbury 2022 weather - yellow warning for thunder, rain and flooding issued by Met Office

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning for Glastonbury for Thursday June 23 - saying severe thunderstorms could hit the site. The alert means that the site could be swept with torrential rain downpours along with thunder and lightning - meaning there is a risk the site could be turned into a mudbath.

The warning is in place from 10am until midnight on Thursday with the Met Office saying it could cause some flooding with possible damage from floodwater and lightning strikes with the potential for power cuts.

A previous weather report from the Met Office added: “From Friday onwards the weather will become more unsettled. There is a risk of heavy showers and thunderstorms in the Glastonbury area on both Friday and Saturday, although these should be quick moving, some surface water might accumulate at times. Temperatures will start to dip as we go through the end of the week returning to near normal for the time of year, with highs likely around 18-20C.
