00:00Hello there, good afternoon.

00:02We'll begin to see a change this week, more in the way of rain and showers, and we'll

00:06start to see a little bit of this change into the afternoon.

00:10Many areas though it should remain dry, a mix of cloud, but also some sunny spells breaking

00:15through that cloud into the afternoon, though we can't rule out some showers, particularly

00:19across southern parts of Scotland, north-western parts of England, even Northern Ireland might

00:23catch the odd shower or two.

00:25But for many, a dry afternoon ahead, feeling warm in the sunshine as well, highs of around

00:3020 degrees Celsius across the south.

00:34Then into the evening, yes, the odd shower may linger around, but for most it should be

00:39a dry night to come, a mix of cloud and clear spells once again, particularly around eastern

00:43coasts where we see a return of that low cloud drifting through in that north-easterly breeze.

00:49That could mean quite a grey start for some across eastern areas.

00:53Under clear skies, temperatures slipping away, feeling a little bit chilly here, but most

00:57towns and cities widely in the mid to high single figures.

01:02So a cloudy, murky start, particularly across the north-east, the far east, East Anglia for

01:07example, but once again that cloud burning back to eastern coasts where it could linger

01:12for a time.

01:13But many areas seeing once again a dry afternoon ahead, still a risk of showers, particularly

01:19across Northern Ireland, northern and central parts of England too.

01:23Once again the odd one or two, turning a little bit heavy, the odd rumble of thunder, but once

01:27again mostly dry for many areas.

01:29More in the way of sunshine tomorrow afternoon, less clouds, and that means temperatures ticking

01:34up a little more.

01:35So highs reaching more towards 22 to 23 degrees Celsius, so still feeling very warm indeed in

01:42that sunshine.

01:43Then for the rest of the week we do need to keep an eye on this feature on Wednesday, potentially

01:47dragging in some clouds and showers across central and southern parts of England.

01:51Then notice a cold front sweeping along that area of high pressure to the north, so starting

01:56to turn a little cooler towards the end of the week.

01:58We might actually see some fairly chilly nights.

02:01Then all eyes out to the west as we head into Friday and just before the bank holiday weekend,

02:06where it's likely we'll see a change, more cloud and also some rain.

02:10But for more updates on the week ahead weather, don't forget you can catch Alex later here

02:15Bye bye.
