00:00Hello, welcome to your national weather update.

00:02As you may be aware, it's all about sunny skies

00:05and high temperatures this week.

00:06If you're after rainfall, it's not good news,

00:09unless you live in northwest Scotland, where

00:11there will be further rain.

00:12Certainly through the day today, a lot

00:14of cloud here on the satellite image and outbreaks of rain

00:16across northern parts of the Highlands, the Western

00:18Isles, and the Northern Isles.

00:20But south of the Great Glen, it's generally dry.

00:23Quite a bit of cloud across parts of northern Scotland

00:25at times, some patchy cloud elsewhere,

00:28but most places, fine.

00:30Lots of blue sky, lots of sunshine,

00:32lifting the temperatures a little bit warmer than it

00:34was over the weekends, widely into the 20s,

00:38mid-20s across England and Wales, high 20s,

00:41perhaps across the southeast.

00:42A little cooler, obviously, with the cloud and the rain

00:45across parts of northern Scotland.

00:47That cloud and rain will continue into the evening,

00:49perhaps easing for a time before another pulse

00:52moves in overnight.

00:54Otherwise, again, most places dry,

00:55maybe a little bit of mist and fog

00:57here and there through the early hours.

00:59That'll go very rapidly on Tuesday morning.

01:02Temperature-wise, not too uncomfortable.

01:05Some towns and cities staying in the mid-teens,

01:07but mostly dipping down to 12 or 13 Celsius.

01:10But the nights are going to get warmer this week,

01:13as will the days.

01:15Strong sunshine again for most on Tuesday.

01:17UV levels will also be high in most locations.

01:21But a patchy rain over northeast Scotland early on,

01:23that will clear.

01:24The rain will ease across the northwest of Scotland, too,

01:26and may eventually pull away from Shetland by the afternoon.

01:29So most places dry.

01:31Lots of sunshine for Northern Ireland,

01:32southern central Scotland, and England and Wales.

01:35It's just a bit of a breeze across the far southeast,

01:38keeping some coasts here a little cooler.

01:40But it lands more widely into the high 20s,

01:44peaking probably at 30 Celsius somewhere

01:47across the southeast.

01:48Again, a little cooler with more of a breeze

01:50across the far north.

01:51But it does look drier here on Tuesday.

01:53Continued threat of some rain across the far north

01:56as we head through Tuesday evening.

01:58But again, elsewhere, if you're looking for rain,

02:00staying dry.

02:02And in the outlook, it's staying dry as well,

02:05because this air of high pressure is just lingering.

02:08These weather fronts just, at times,

02:10flirting with the far north will continue

02:11to bring the potential for a bit of rain here.

02:13But otherwise, high pressure, more sunshine Wednesday,

02:16Thursday, and Friday, and temperatures

02:18just rising day on day.

02:20So that by Friday, some parts of the south

02:23could be into the mid-30s Celsius,

02:26and that likely to continue into the weekend also.

02:29So yes, plenty of sunshine to come,

02:31not much rainfall to come.
