00:00Welcome to your national weather update.

00:02It's another day of some sunshine and also

00:06some heavy showers.

00:07But in places, those showers are going to be pretty lively

00:09with the potential for further thunderstorms

00:12that could cause some disruption.

00:14The image from space is a messy one.

00:16Lots of cloud heading northwards of wet starts

00:18across northeastern parts of Scotland.

00:20But that rain is scooting through

00:21and it's further south where we are concerned

00:24about the showers breaking out.

00:25We've already seen a big thunderstorm

00:27across northern parts of Wales this morning.

00:29And it's in this zone, Wales, southwest England,

00:31parts of the West Midlands, where

00:33we're going to see slow-moving, heavy, thundery showers

00:37through this afternoon.

00:38Now, because they'll be slow-moving,

00:40the rainfall could really build up and cause some problems.

00:42A lot of spray, surface water on the roads,

00:44the potential for local flooding.

00:46But also because they're slow-moving,

00:48they will be hit and miss.

00:49So not everywhere we'll see those showers.

00:52Across the rest of the UK, the showers

00:53will come and go as well.

00:55But probably not too many over eastern England.

00:57Decent chance of staying dry here.

00:59And in the sunny spells, top temperature 2021.

01:02For most, though, we're only in the high teens,

01:04so feeling rather cool.

01:05And we'll see more of those heavy showers breaking out

01:08through the late afternoon into the evening.

01:10A greater risk of some heavy downpours

01:12then over parts of northern England and southern Scotland.

01:15Tending to fade in many places, the showers tonight.

01:18But we'll keep some going over the Midlands and northeast

01:21England through the early hours.

01:23Elsewhere, it does turn generally dry

01:26and temperatures will dip down to 12 or 13 Celsius.

01:29Maybe down to 9 or 10 along the south coast of England.

01:33Onto Friday, and it is another day of sunshine and showers.

01:36Certainly some heavy ones around first thing

01:38over parts of northeast England and the Midlands.

01:40Should fade from here, but then we're

01:42looking at another area of rain pushing back

01:44into northeastern parts of Scotland during the morning.

01:48And then, again, look at this.

01:49The showers just break out as the warmth of the sun

01:52gets going.

01:53A bit of a difference, I think, tomorrow

01:55is that there'll be a bit more of a breeze.

01:57The showers will be moving through.

01:59And I don't think we'll see too many of a Wales

02:01and southwest England.

02:02Good chance of a dry afternoon here.

02:03No, it's mostly going to be across the Midlands

02:05and eastern England, central and eastern Scotland.

02:09Later on, however, there's more rain

02:11pushing into northern Ireland.

02:13Temperature wise, well, I think we'll

02:15be a little bit warmer on Friday 19, 20, 21, maybe 22

02:19with some sunny spells across parts of the east.

02:21As I say, not much of the south coast or the southwest

02:25seeing too many showers on Friday afternoon.

02:27But this next line of rain coming into northern Ireland,

02:30that could be pretty heavy as it moves in during Friday evening.

02:33Could be some quite gusty winds with that as well.

02:36And the winds just suddenly start

02:38to pick up as this line of nasty looking rain sweeps in.

02:42And that will then spread to western parts of Scotland

02:44during Friday night.

02:46That's this weather system here.

02:47It'll bring some rain across England and Wales

02:49for a time during Saturday.

02:51High pressure is then building down to the southwest.

02:54It is trying to move in.

02:57And that means that southwestern parts in particular

02:59are looking mostly dry through Sunday.

03:01But elsewhere, there will still be a mixture of sunshine

03:04and showers on Sunday.

03:06Signs next week that that high might

03:07start to take more of a bit of control across the UK,

03:11drying things out.

03:12But until then, plenty of showers around.

03:14Watch out for some heavy downpours today.
