00:00Morning. Welcome to your 49-hour weekend.

00:04Will the weather be playing ball?

00:06Clocks going back, of course, tonight.

00:08Means we get that extra hour in bed.

00:10But for today, many places set fair.

00:13Dry and fine with sunny spells.

00:14But there's always one or two exceptions.

00:16And they're at the extreme southeast of the country

00:18and the far northwest.

00:19Thickening cloud bringing a grey day

00:21for much of East Anglia and the southeast.

00:23Parts of the East Midlands and Lincolnshire too

00:25staying pretty glum with some rain and drizzle at times.

00:28And then we have heavier rain coming into the far northwest.

00:31Quite a wet day on the west coast of Scotland by this evening.

00:33That rain approaching Glasgow and turning damp

00:36after a dry start across much of Northern Ireland.

00:38But between those two zones of cloud,

00:41quite a bit of fine, bright, sunny weather to be had.

00:44And it's still pretty mild temperatures getting up

00:46into the mid-teens, 15, 16, perhaps 17 degrees Celsius.

00:50Behind this line of rain, though, this weather front,

00:53some colder air is arriving.

00:55And that's going to seep its way south tonight.

00:57The rain will spread through the central belt this evening

01:00and then spread into parts of Northern England and North Wales.

01:03But all the while, as this line of rain trickles south,

01:06it kind of fizzles out.

01:07So by morning, it's pretty much disappeared.

01:10But it will be introducing that cooler air.

01:12Maybe one or two showers and a brisk breeze

01:14across the far northwest.

01:15But for many, it turns clear through the night

01:18and it will be turning chilly.

01:20Certainly colder than the night just gone.

01:22Widely down to the low single figures

01:25and some pockets of frost likely in the countryside.

01:27Not quite as cold across the far south.

01:30A bit more cloud spilling in here from that weather front,

01:32which is continuing to break up.

01:34And it should be disappearing quite smartly on Sunday

01:37to reveal plenty of sunshine tomorrow.

01:40Certainly for England and Wales, it stays that way.

01:42But for Scotland and Northern Ireland,

01:44we are looking at a weather system moving in,

01:46bringing cloud and outbreaks of rain

01:48and a strengthening breeze as well.

01:50So things changing here again during tomorrow.

01:52Further south, it's by and large

01:54a fine day on Sunday.

01:56It won't be as warm as today, 12, 13,

01:58maybe a 14 after that cold start.

02:01These temperatures are close to average,

02:03feeling pretty pleasant in the sunny spells.

02:05Whereas similar temperatures, but a very different feel

02:08with the wind and the rain across western Scotland

02:11and parts of Northern Ireland.

02:12That is from a weather system that's edging in

02:15during Sunday and will try and push south

02:18as we go through Monday, introducing more cloud.

02:20But again, I think the rain tending to fizzle out.

02:22And then as we go into next week,

02:24if you're on half term, this is probably good news.

02:27An area of high pressure is starting to edge its way in,

02:30which will bring a lot of dry weather.

02:32Not necessarily sunny.

02:34There'll probably still be a lot of cloud

02:36and misty conditions.

02:38But this area of high pressure, I say,

02:39should give many areas a pretty dry week

02:42as we go through next week.

02:43If you are on half term, then do keep up to date

02:45with those day-to-day details.

02:46Best way to do that, of course,

02:48is to hit subscribe on our YouTube channel.

02:52Thanks for watching.
