00:00Hi there, I hope you are making the most of the fine weather we've currently got because

00:06low pressure arrives during the weekend. Although it does take its time, at first the influence

00:12of this area of high pressure clings on particularly towards the east, whilst the lows to the west

00:18slowly gather pace and bring weather fronts into western parts as we start off Saturday.

00:25Mostly it's Scotland, especially western Scotland and western parts of Northern Ireland where

00:29we'll see outbreaks of rain first thing, a strengthening wind. For much of England and

00:33Wales, perhaps eastern Scotland a bright start to the day, another chilly start in the east

00:37but a fine day follows for many with just a strengthening breeze through the day and

00:44thickening cloud. Otherwise largely dry with some glimmers of sunshine remaining into the

00:49afternoon at highs of 17 Celsius but by evening the rain is starting to push into the southwest

00:54and it's already becoming more persistent across Northern Ireland and western Scotland

00:58as the weather fronts from the Atlantic begin to move in. And those weather fronts will

01:03bring a spell of very wet weather and increasingly windy weather across the country during Saturday

01:09night. The heaviest rain will be across the southwest and Wales on Saturday night along

01:13with gales around exposed coasts but by Sunday, well, the initial band moves away, weakening

01:19as it does. It stays wet across the Northern Isles and very windy. Another band of rain

01:24then moves into Wales in the southwest during Sunday, some heavy downpours associated with

01:29this. Otherwise brighter skies into the far west but with a number of showers and it's

01:35going to turn a bit less windy for a time. That showery theme stays with us as we start

01:40next week before further lows arrive later with more wet and windy weather to come.
