Caravan fans should pack a brolly this Bank Holiday

Keep calm and carry on: rain is expected this Bank Holiday

Caravan enthusiasts looking forward to the May bank holiday weekend might want to pack a brolly in their suitcase.

The forecast from the Met Office is not as positive as some would have hoped, with April showers set to overstay their welcome.

According to the experts, today’s (April 30th) weather will be a good mark of things to come.

It will begin dry and bright in most places, but clouds from the north and west will ruin the fun by bringing rain.

A similar theme will continue into Saturday, with a promising start giving way to heavy and prolonged downpours

Sunday is set to be cold, wet, windy and generally miserable, so caravanners might wish to have a day out to somewhere sheltered, such as a museum or the cinema.

Those holidaying in Scotland might have slightly better luck, with the country experiencing dryer and brighter weather, despite the low temperatures.

Monday should also bring dry and bright weather, although temperatures are set to drop, meaning it might be best to layer up before going outside.

Those not put off by the weather could head to outdoor attractions such as Alton Towers or Blackpool’s Pleasure Beach.
