00:00Hi there, if you're hoping to view the partial solar eclipse this morning, you are in luck

00:05or not in luck, depending on where you are.

00:09Very different conditions across the UK.

00:11We start off with plenty of sunshine, but for Scotland and Northern Ireland it soon

00:15turns cloudy.

00:17And by 11am peak eclipse viewing time, with the greatest proportion of the sun obscured

00:24by the moon, likely across Western Scotland and Northern Ireland, well it's in these locations

00:29that we have the greatest probability of cloud cover.

00:33Thick cloud containing outbreaks of rain and a freshening breeze.

00:36Meanwhile, if you're across much of Wales, away from the far west, as well as much of

00:41the rest of England, away from the far north-west, and perhaps Cornwall, mostly cloud-free skies

00:46are expected.

00:47So, a good chance of viewing the partial solar eclipse in these locations.

00:51But of course, do please remember to view it safely, never look directly into the sun.

00:56The eclipse is over by midday and it's at this point that the rain clouds are moving

01:00into northern England, much of Wales and eventually parts of Cornwall, the cloud thickening across

01:05many parts.

01:06A freshening breeze, and that breeze particularly strong across north-west Scotland where the

01:10rain is replaced by frequent showers.

01:13Northern Ireland a bit drier as we end the day, but we keep the best of the sunshine

01:16into the east midlands, East Anglia and the south-east, temperatures up to 14 or 15 Celsius

01:21given enough sunshine.

01:24Near the front that I mentioned that's crossing the country tends to weaken, so not much rain

01:28as it clears through southern parts, although there will be a lot of cloud overnight.

01:32Then the low, responsible, pulls away into Scandinavia.

01:36We've got this strong wind overnight, particularly for the north and west initially, and then

01:41for north sea coast we'll see this brisk wind by the start of Sunday, risk of gales around

01:46coastal spots and that coincides with an unusually high tide, there could even be some coastal

01:52impacts as we begin Sunday across parts of Norfolk for example.

01:57Now there will be a lot of cloud around as well, so with the cloud and the breeze temperatures

02:00will stay up typically at 7 to 9 Celsius, but it will be a grey start for many, particularly

02:05towards the south and south-east as that front clears away, giving a few spots of rain here

02:09and there.

02:10It is out of the way by mid-morning, the cloud then breaks up very nicely into the afternoon,

02:15blue skies for the vast majority, a few exceptions, some patchy cloud remaining into the north-east

02:22and thickening cloud once again into Northern Ireland, parts of the Western Isles, perhaps

02:26fringes of Cornwall and Pembrokeshire.

02:29But for many actually inland it is sunny skies and temperatures rising as the wind eases

02:35up to 17 or 18 Celsius, feeling very pleasant mid-teens in the north.

02:41And that's just the start of it because we've got high pressure then building into the UK

02:47from the south for the start of next week.

02:49And that high then sets up shop just to the east of the country, helping to draw up clear

02:55skies and increased warmth from Tuesday onwards.

02:59In fact, temperatures will rise by Wednesday, Thursday up into the low 20s, so it's going

03:04to feel very warm, very nice indeed for the start of April and we keep that fine weather

03:10going right the way through the week.

03:11Bye bye.
