00:00Welcome to your national weather update. Don't forget to hit subscribe on our

00:04YouTube channel and you'll never miss a forecast. And there's plenty going on in

00:08the forecast over the next couple of days. Already in the past 24 hours we've had a

00:12lot of rain across Western Scotland. You can see on the radar the zone of rain

00:16slowly pushing southwards, linked into a line of cloud that extends out into the

00:22Atlantic. And this little ripple on the weather front is an area we're looking

00:26at closely. It's developing over the next 24 hours into an area of low

00:30pressure and it's going to bring a spell of wet and windy weather across the UK

00:34during Tuesday night and into Wednesday before heading its way up across the

00:38Northern Isles later on Wednesday. So a spell of wet and windy weather is on the

00:43way and for some today it's going to be a bit damp and drizzly because as we

00:47rewind the clock we've got these two weather fronts around, hence why it has

00:50been so wet across Western Scotland overnight. Only slowly tracking

00:55southwards, staying quite damp across southern Scotland, parts of South Wales,

00:59southwest England too, but not much rain getting to eastern areas and with some

01:02brightness across East Anglia in the southeast. Really quite mild here, 19

01:07possibly 20 degrees Celsius. Skies brightening across northern Scotland as

01:11well so a bit of afternoon sunshine here but it will be quite blustery. Elsewhere

01:15a lot of cloud. It is quite mild though, 17, 18 degrees even where it's dull and

01:20damp but obviously not feeling all that mild with the cloud and the rain. Now

01:25that rain will pep up as we go through this evening across Northern Ireland but

01:28also southern and then central Scotland. Further rain to come tonight across

01:32Wales too. That is all tied in with that developing area of low pressure not just

01:37turning wet but also turning very windy especially around the coast of Wales and

01:42southwest Scotland. But with the wet and windy weather it's going to keep those

01:47temperatures up again overnight. Tonight a very mild night, some towns and cities

01:51staying in the mid-teens. So it won't be a cold start to Wednesday but it's not

01:56gonna be very pleasant start. A lot of spray, a lot of surface water on the

01:59roads across northern England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and very

02:03gusty winds as well. We do have a Metaverse yellow warning in place for

02:07those gusty winds. The wet weather will swing its way eastwards eventually

02:12getting to East Anglia and the southeast probably around the early part of the

02:16afternoon. It'll be followed by brighter skies for many come the afternoon,

02:19sunshine but also a fair few showers zipping on what will still be a very

02:24gusty wind. Of course northwest England, western Scotland, Northern Ireland, plenty

02:29of showers through the afternoon and into the evening. Let's take a look at

02:32the temperatures because they're gonna be quite interesting actually. Starting

02:35off very mild, temperatures at nine o'clock in the morning 16-17 degrees

02:40feeling really quite humid with that wet weather around. But cooler air is

02:44following on behind this weather front and that is being introduced across all

02:48areas so that by the afternoon temperatures could be a degree or so

02:51lower and it'll certainly feel a lot fresher. We'll have lost that humidity so

02:56feeling cooler perhaps in the afternoon than in the morning. But also as I said

03:01it will be drier and brighter for many. There's that weather front finally

03:03clearing away from East Anglia in the southeast by mid-afternoon hopefully if

03:08not a touch earlier. And then most places with clear spells as we head into

03:12Wednesday night but plenty more showers coming in across northern and western

03:16parts and that's how Thursday is looking too. As I said plenty going on so make

03:20sure you stay up to date. You can see the weather warnings on the app and on the

03:24website and of course we'll keep you updated hour by hour if you follow us on
