00:00Hello, there. Welcome to your evening weather update from the Met Office. Low pressure has

00:05brought some outbreaks of rain, particularly across northern and western parts of the UK

00:09today. This system moves out of the way overnight and then high pressure starts to build in

00:13across the UK, keeping it dry and settled for the rest of the weekend and much of next

00:18week too. Becoming established to the east of the UK, we'll see the winds coming in from

00:22the southeast as we move through next week, temperatures rising, particularly across central

00:27and western parts. Looking at the picture for this evening time, this weather front

00:31continues to push its way southeast with very little rain left on it across southern counties

00:35of England and Wales, just some light rain and drizzle. Overnight, some clear spells

00:40developing but generally staying fairly cloudy and windy, particularly across the northern

00:43half of the UK, gales around some coasts of Scotland continuing and further heavy showers

00:48across northern Scotland, Orkney and Shetland, seeing the most frequent showers through the

00:53night. As a result of a loss of cloud, temperatures not falling too low, generally 7 to 9 Celsius,

00:59so not so chilly night to come and a fairly bright start to Sunday morning. Though there'll

01:04be a fair amount of cloud around, this should start to break up as we head through the day,

01:08but it remains quite windy across northern parts of the UK, the Pennines seeing gusts

01:12of 40-50 mph for a time. It remains windy down the east coast of England and Scotland

01:17too, and that wind coming in from the northerly direction and we could see some large waves

01:22around some coasts here, so do take care if you are heading to coastal stretches for

01:26the afternoon. Best of the sunshine across central western parts of England and Wales,

01:30stretching into parts of Northern Ireland, western Scotland as well. Winds will be lighter

01:35here and feeling pleasant in that sunshine. Highs reaching the mid-teens, 14 to 16 Celsius,

01:42generally locally we could see 17 or 18 perhaps across southern counties. Always feeling chillier

01:47with that breeze still across eastern parts in particular.

01:51As we head through into the evening time, weather fronts do start to move in across

01:54parts of Northern Ireland into the Western Isles and the Highlands as well. Could be

01:58thick enough for a few splashes of light rain and drizzle. Generally elsewhere it stays

02:03dry with some lengthy clear skies and that will allow temperatures to drop away, chillier

02:07than the night just gone, 3 or 4 Celsius in towns and cities in the countryside lower

02:13than this. There could be some low cloud also developing around some western coasts

02:17of England and Wales to take us into Monday morning. But a chilly start, bright start

02:22for many though. Thicker cloud across Northern Ireland, northern and western parts of Scotland

02:26will remain here through the day. There will be some sunny spells developing there as that

02:30cloud tries to break up, but the vast majority of England and Wales will be dry, lengthy

02:36blue skies and sunshine out there and winds generally on the light side. It will be a

02:40pleasant afternoon. Temperatures again 17, 18 Celsius, well above average where we should

02:45be around 12 Celsius at the best for this time of year. Under the cloud even still reaching

02:5114 or 15 Celsius. Into the evening time, further cloud across northern and western parts of

02:58the UK, but for the next few days high pressure builds further and it keeps it settled. Plenty

03:04of sunshine to come through the middle part of the week. Temperatures rising as well,

03:09perhaps locally getting into the low 20s across central and western and north-western

03:14parts of the UK. Always a little bit chillier further east you are with that east to south-easterly

03:19breeze developing. If you'd like more information on the weather where you are for the next
