00:00Hello. Welcome to your weekend

00:02forecast from the Met Office.

00:03If you're after some sunshine this

00:05June weekend and some warmth,

00:07well, look away now because, yes,

00:09there may be a bit of sunshine at

00:10times, but for many, it's looking

00:12cloudy, often wet and

00:14fairly blustery and chilly as well.

00:16Why so?

00:17All thanks to an area of low

00:18pressure, quite a deep area of low

00:20pressure. In fact, that's bringing

00:21some wild weather to parts of Spain

00:23and France, so much so that the

00:25Spanish Meteorological Service

00:27named this storm Miguel.

00:29You can see the isobars really

00:30close together there, some pretty

00:32violent conditions across parts of

00:33France. But as the low pressure

00:35heads northwards, it does weaken.

00:37So the conditions won't be as bad

00:39across the UK.

00:40But nevertheless, with low pressure

00:41sitting over our heads, that does

00:43mean rain.

00:44And with the isobars fairly close

00:46together, it is still going to be

00:47blustery.

00:48Now, the wet and windy weather

00:49starts on Friday, but as the low

00:51heads northwards, you can still

00:53see bands of rain spiralling

00:55around. It's bringing more heavy

00:56rain, particularly to Scotland,

00:58Northern Ireland, Northwest England

01:00and North Wales early on on

01:01Saturday.

01:02In the south, it looks a bit

01:03brighter on Saturday.

01:04There'll be some sunshine, but as

01:06you can see, it will still be

01:07blustery and there will still be

01:09showers around.

01:10It's also going to stay pretty cool.

01:13Temperatures with some sunny spells

01:15across the south may get up into the

01:16high teens.

01:17But for most places, particularly

01:19stuck under that rain band, 12

01:21to 14, with a brisk wind, it will

01:23feel cooler as well.

01:25How about Sunday?

01:26Well, the area of low pressure does

01:28try and ebb away, but there's

01:30another one not too far away.

01:31And although the isobars do open

01:33out, so it won't be quite as windy

01:34on Sunday, it's still going to be

01:36fairly breezy and it's basically

01:37going to be a day of sunshine and

01:39showers. Perhaps with the low still

01:40close to the northeast, some more

01:42persistent rain here and still a

01:43brisk and chilly wind across the

01:45far northeast.

01:46Elsewhere, we could well start off

01:48with a bit of sunshine, but the

01:49clouds will bubble up and then

01:50bands of showers will be swinging

01:52through.

01:53We may see some areas that don't

01:55see too many of those showers.

01:57We may see a bit more sunshine on

01:58Sunday compared to Saturday.

02:00But overall, you can still

02:02expect to get wet at some point

02:03through Sunday because of that

02:05brisk breeze chasing the showers

02:07along. That brisk breeze also,

02:09again, making it feel on the

02:10cool side.

02:12Temperatures, again, middle of

02:13the teens, maybe 18, 19

02:15with a bit of sunshine across the

02:16southeast. But for most places,

02:18again, rather cool for

02:20the time of year.

02:21There are a few signs it may get a

02:22little bit drier and brighter

02:25as we go through next week.

02:26For more on that, why not stay up

02:28to date by following us on social

02:30media.
