00:00Hello, we'll see skies clearing overnight tonight to leave many places with a bright

00:05but chilly start to Sunday. Looking at the bigger picture then, we have this cold front

00:10that's going to be sinking its way south and eastwards, then a ridge of higher pressure

00:14extending across the south before the next frontal system moves through into Sunday across

00:19north-western parts, introducing a lot of cloud and rain, especially across the UK on

00:25Monday. But back to the rest of this evening and overnight, cloud across the south-east

00:31will generally fade, we may see some mist and fog patches developing, then this cold

00:35front will sink its way south and eastwards, but as it does so, it generally weakens just

00:41to leave a bit of cloud towards the far south and east. Elsewhere, many places seeing clear

00:46skies, we will hold on to a few showers towards the far north of Scotland, but otherwise it

00:51is going to be a colder night out there to start Sunday morning, mist and fog patches

00:56towards the south, but further towards the north, we may see some pockets of frost to

01:01start the day. But that means a bright start to Sunday, plenty of autumnal sunshine around

01:07and we'll hold on to that sunshine, especially across England and Wales through much of Sunday.

01:14Further towards the west, it will be turning much gloomier, we'll see outbreaks of rain

01:18moving through across Northern Ireland and especially across north-western parts of Scotland

01:24too, could turn quite heavy at times and persistent with a bit more of a breeze as well. But in

01:30the sunshine, we'll see highs up to 13, 14, possibly 15 degrees, so a touchdown on Saturday

01:36but feeling chillier, especially under the persistent rain towards the north and west.

01:43So as we go through Sunday evening, this rain will continue to move its way south and eastwards

01:48turning heavy at times across parts of Cumbria and then into parts of Wales, the Midlands

01:53and then gradually towards the south-east to start Monday. There's going to be a lot

01:58of cloud around through into the start of Monday, that will help keep temperatures up,

02:03so not quite as cold, but we may hold on to some clearer skies towards the far south and

02:08east. So that leaves a quite murky picture out there. On Monday morning, there's going

02:14to be a lot of cloud around across much of the UK, with outbreaks of rain and drizzle

02:19on and off, perhaps turning quite persistent at times across parts of Wales. There may

02:24be some glimmers of sunshine towards the south and east, but on the whole, it is going to

02:29be a largely cloudy start to the new working week, with temperatures around 15 or 16 degrees.
