The Met Office has issued yellow thunderstorm warnings for Friday and Saturday .

Some places in southern England and Wales could see as much as 50 mm ( 2 in) of rain.

This is in contrast to the warmest spell of late summer weather since 2019 .

The autumn equinox is this Sunday - 22 September - and it seems that Mother Nature has decided to end summer right on cue.
