Brits can expect a return to a more 'typical' summer following a period of extreme weather, according to forecasters.
A lengthy hot, dry spell in many parts of the country has been followed by days of thunderstorms and heavy downpours this week, with a number of towns spending Thursday (August 18) cleaning after flash flooding the day before.
Some of the worst effects were seen on the Isle of Wight, where one landlord described having to remove tree trunks, litter and debris from their pub after it was inundated by a torrent of water.
