00:00Hello. Welcome to your latest

00:02weekend updates from the Met

00:03office. It won't rain all

00:05weekend. It won't be a washout.

00:06There will be dry and bright

00:07spells.

00:08However, there will be further

00:10showers never too far away,

00:11blown along by a fairly brisk

00:14but not particularly strong

00:15wind, although it could get quite

00:16gusty on Sunday.

00:18And also on Sunday, we're keeping

00:19our eyes peeled on the potential

00:21for some places seeing some

00:23heavier rain.

00:25Now, as you might imagine, when

00:26we're talking about showers and

00:27brisk breezes, low pressure

00:29is the main dominant feature

00:30through this weekend. In fact,

00:31we've got a couple of systems

00:33moving in, this one arriving on

00:34Friday night, a brief

00:36gap before that next weather

00:38system arrives later on Saturday

00:40and into Sunday.

00:41This first weather system will

00:43make for a fairly damp start

00:45on Saturday.

00:46Early in the day, a lot of cloud

00:47rain, some snow over the Scottish

00:49mountains and quite breezy.

00:51But it does move away.

00:52And for large chunks of the

00:54country, particularly Wales,

00:56parts of northern England,

00:57southern England, actually much

00:59of Saturday afternoon looks dry

01:00and bright. But then that next

01:02weather system arrives, the breeze

01:04picks up and more rain comes to

01:05Scotland and Northern Ireland

01:06during the day and perhaps into

01:08parts of northwest England and

01:09north Wales, too.

01:11So there's a brief interlude

01:13between the wet weather and it

01:15does sound a bit milder on Saturday

01:16as well. It's turned a bit colder

01:18over recent days.

01:19Temperatures back up into the teens

01:21in some spots if we see any

01:22brightness on Saturday afternoon.

01:24Big question mark about Saturday

01:25night and Sunday.

01:26This weather front comes in.

01:27It could have a little wriggle or

01:29ripple on it.

01:30And when we see these waving

01:31weather fronts, well, they can

01:33cause a couple of complications

01:35with the forecast.

01:35They could also provide some quite

01:37heavy bursts of rain.

01:38So there is the potential for some

01:40heavy rain on that weather front.

01:41But it could be a little further

01:42east. It could be a little further

01:43west. But for some, it could be a

01:45pretty soggy Sunday.

01:47Away from that weather front,

01:48though, parts of the east of

01:49England, maybe largely dry and

01:51bright and further north.

01:52We should see some sunny spells

01:53across parts of Scotland and

01:54Northern Ireland.

01:55Just a few showers here.

01:57But also you'll notice the wind

01:58starting to come down from the

02:00north. So actually turning a bit

02:01colder here, whereas of course,

02:02England, Wales, Sunday looks

02:04like being another mild day, but it

02:05won't be feeling all that mild,

02:07obviously, if you're stuck under

02:08that waving weather front and

02:10potentially a fair bit of rain.

02:12However, if you're after some dry

02:14weather, next week looks like a

02:15decent shout.

02:17High pressure is arriving and

02:19overall, well, it'll be much

02:21drier and we should see in places

02:22some sunshine.

02:23So a few signs of spring, perhaps

02:25as we go into next week.

02:27For the very latest hour by hour,
