00:00Hello there, another cloudy day is in prospect for many of us today, although there's a lot
00:05of fog around from this morning, that fog is rather slow to clear and for some persisting
00:10all day, temperatures near normal. But a change is afoot with the weather as a cold front
00:15is poised to move westwards during the course of Monday, introducing brighter conditions
00:20for all during the course of next week. So back to this afternoon, it's a good deal
00:25of low cloud and fog across many central and eastern areas and that fog is slow to
00:30clear and where it doesn't clear, it's feeling rather cool all day, best of any brightness
00:34for the west. Temperatures generally around normal for the time of year with highs of
00:397 or 8 across the south, highs of 5 and 6 further north. So that cloudy picture continues
00:47overnight tonight, although that cold front is starting to actually make inroads across
00:51many eastern areas, so light outbreaks of rain and drizzle are possible. Cloud less
00:56of an issue overnight tonight. Temperatures generally staying well above freezing tonight
01:03with overnight lows of 3, 4, 5 across many parts of England and Wales. Temperatures a
01:07bit cooler further north. So another cloudy start tomorrow morning as that cold front
01:12continues to move westwards. And during the course of the day, cloud base is lifting,
01:18so generally a brighter prospect during the course of the afternoon and some of that cloud
01:21starting to break up. Temperatures generally around average during the afternoon with highs
01:26of 7 or 8 across many parts of England and Wales. And looking at the outlook, so a cold
01:31and frosty start on Tuesday and Wednesday, so a lot of good bright weather around, but
01:37turning less settled later in the period. Thank you for listening and please check our
