00:00Hello, happy Friday. Welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office.

00:04It's been a cloudy old week for much of the UK, not everywhere. Parts of northern

00:09Scotland have seen quite a bit of sunshine and again today on the

00:12satellite pitch you can see that nice hole in the cloud, again generating quite

00:16a bit of blue sky here. It's also allowed for some fog first thing. Elsewhere we've

00:20kept the cloud. A few holes across northwest England, northern parts of

00:24Wales and the cloud is thick enough in the southwest of England to produce some

00:28drizzly conditions. So quite a damp day across parts of Devon, Cornwall and

00:33Somerset too. A bit of drizzle is possible in the east of Northern Ireland but most

00:36places again just dry and cloudy. That breeze is fairly light but dragging the

00:42air up over the hills which generates the breaks in the cloud across northwest

00:46England, particularly Cumbria and again across northern Scotland where

00:49temperatures are likely to get up to 13-14 degrees, maybe 15, not quite as warm

00:54as earlier in the week. In fact January temperatures have been dripping

00:57off over past few days so only nine or ten across parts of eastern England will

01:01feel quite cool and not feeling very pleasant with the drizzle and the

01:04fairly brisk breeze around the coast of Devon and Cornwall. That damp weather

01:09will continue through the evening and overnight. The holes in the cloud will

01:13continue across northern Scotland which will again here allow temperatures to

01:17fall down close to freezing. One change through the night the cloud is going to

01:20thicken over these eastern counties producing some drizzly conditions over

01:24parts of Yorkshire all the way up to Aberdeenshire. Temperature wise well that

01:30blanket of cloud will generally keep the temperatures up but colder air is

01:33moving in so it will be a chillier start to Saturday. Still most places a long way

01:38from freezing six or seven Celsius, nine or ten further west but in northern

01:42Scotland yes where we've got those clearer skies sheltered glens will again

01:46likely dip down to freezing. But again here we'll have some sunshine, any

01:50morning fog should clear away across northern Scotland but it's these eastern

01:54counties of Scotland and to the northeast of England where it'll be a

01:57very different day. It'll be dank and drizzly, not very pleasant at all

02:02actually. Drizzly showers likely all the way down to Lincolnshire maybe even

02:05north Norfolk. Parts of southern England again seeing a bit of drizzle maybe a

02:08little bit more in the way of damp weather just moving into Northern

02:11Ireland for Saturday all set. But elsewhere again many places just dry and

02:15cloudy. Again with some sunny skies, light winds, top temperatures in the

02:20northwest 11, 12 maybe 13 Celsius. But again temperatures for most places a

02:24degree or so down tomorrow compared to today. So with eight or nine Celsius on

02:29some of these North Sea coasts with that drizzly rain that will feel pretty cool

02:33even for the middle of November. Now as you go through Saturday evening not a

02:37great deal of change but notice these bands of fairly weak looking rain just

02:41creeping in a little bit. So it will turn a bit wetter I suspect across

02:44Northern Ireland. Those weather fronts are making steady progress and slowly

02:49but surely eroding the area of high pressure that's been with us. This low is

02:53heading up towards Iceland but it's weather front has a bit more about it. A

02:57bit more welly, a bit more oomph as it brings some more cloud and rain into the

03:01northwest. But as it moves through it will finally introduce some clearer

03:06conditions. Not really with us on Sunday for most it's another drab day but as

03:10the breeze picks up I think maybe a few more holes in the cloud are possible for

03:14parts of the Midlands, South East England. A bit of brightness here. There will be a

03:17little bit more in the way of rain as that weather front moves in across

03:20Scotland, Northern Ireland. Also some showery rain ahead of it for parts of

03:23Northern England and North Wales. Again many places will just be dry and cloudy

03:28but brighter skies coming into the far northwest. The winds picking up here as

03:32well particularly late in the day. Temperatures higher on Sunday though so

03:35it will feel a bit warmer particularly if you do get any sunny spells over Central

03:39and Eastern England. More likely to see those temperatures back into the teens.

03:43Most of us are likely to see some sunshine though on Monday. If you can't

03:48wait till then for your sunshine then check out the weather studio live. We are

03:51back so you can watch that. That'll definitely brighten your day.
