Hello. A lively spell of weather over the next few days.
00:04
There's going to be plenty more showers zipping in on a fairly brisk wind.
00:07
But actually, for large parts of the country, Saturday will be dry.
00:11
Friday, however, is far from dry.
00:13
This is the big picture from space.
00:15
You can see a swirl of cloud up to the north and another one down to the southwest.
00:19
In between, we've had some mist and fog.
00:21
That's clearing as the bands of showers from the southernmost area of low pressure drift northwards.
00:27
There's some heavy downpours around and we'll continue to see some downpours through parts of Wales,
00:32
southwest England extending into the Midlands this afternoon.
00:36
Some showers elsewhere, but for much of eastern England, it's a lot drier than yesterday.
00:40
And the rain will tend to peter out across northern Scotland, lingering in the Northern Isles.
00:44
Yes, but parts of Aberdeenshire across to the Highlands should turn a little brighter.
00:48
Temperature wise, it's mild.
00:50
It is quite blustery, so it doesn't feel quite as mild.
00:53
And certainly when these heavy downpours drift through central southern England and into the Midlands, temperatures will drop off.
00:59
But either side of the heavy showers, temperatures could easily get up to 18, 19 or perhaps even 20 Celsius in the south.
01:06
And 15, 16 further north is above average.
01:10
It's going to be a mild evening as well.
01:11
But notice those heavy downpours do work across eastern England and northern England this evening.
01:16
Bear that in mind if you're heading out onto the roads.
01:18
More showers then drift northwards across northern Ireland, northern England into southern Scotland.
01:24
But across much of England and Wales, the second half of the night becomes mostly dry with clear spells.
01:30
Still a bit of a breeze blowing and it is, as I say, going to be very mild.
01:35
These are the temperatures at the end of the night in towns and cities generally staying in double digits.
01:40
So it won't be a cold start to Saturday.
01:42
And actually, for most of England, Wales should be a fine and a bright start.
01:46
There'll be some sunshine around, some early showers over northern England,
01:50
a wet start through the central belt of Scotland and northern Ireland.
01:53
But even here, I suspect it will turn drier and brighter as the day goes on.
01:57
So Glasgow, Edinburgh cheering up.
01:59
There will be further outbreaks of rain across central and northern Scotland,
02:02
staying quite misty and murky around the coasts in the northeast.
02:06
Elsewhere, brighter skies compared to Friday, a bit more in the way of sunshine.
02:12
But notice the showers are returning to the southwest come the afternoon.
02:16
Won't be as windy through Saturday, but it will still be very mild.
02:20
Temperatures again in the south, 18, 19, perhaps even squeaking up to 20 degrees Celsius.
02:25
Stays mild on Saturday evening, but we are going to see more showers coming in at this stage.
02:29
Again, some heavy ones, some bright colours there across parts of Wales,
02:33
extending into northwest England and northern Ireland.
02:36
And generally, those showers becoming more extensive as we head into Sunday.
02:40
Low pressure continues to dominate.
02:42
One kind of fizzles out, but another one joins in from the southwest.
02:46
These weather fronts will be bands of showers heading northwards.
02:50
And again, the isobars just starting to squeeze together along the south coast.
02:54
The winds will pick up during Sunday.
02:56
Sunday then there will be some sunny spells, but there will be those bands of showers heading their way northwards.
03:01
But temperatures remain in the mid to high teens and the mild and fairly showery outlook will continue as we head into next week,
03:09
which is half term for many.
03:11
