00:00Hello there, good evening. How much rain have you seen today and is there any more on its

00:05way? Well, there's certainly going to be further spells of rain across parts of the south as

00:08we head through this evening. This band moving its way eastwards at times, pushing northwards,

00:13bringing some outbreaks of rain across Sussex, Kent, potentially parts of East Anglia as

00:17we head through the first part of the evening, eventually clearing away and then a second

00:21band of rain pushing in from the west, leading to quite a wet start across Cheshire, Lancashire

00:26for example, and elsewhere across England and Wales, this turning quite heavy at times

00:31and elsewhere, yes, there is a risk of showers, particularly in the west, but there'll also

00:35be some clearer skies where temperatures may just dip down a little bit more, particularly

00:39across the northeast of Scotland, but otherwise plenty of cloud which is going to keep those

00:43temperatures up. Then Friday looks fairly similar to what we saw on Thursday, bands of rain moving

00:49their way eastwards, but this time it looks to clear into the North Sea a little bit quicker,

00:54but still it is going to bring some heavy, potentially quite blustery spells of rain during

00:57the morning, and then it leads us into a day of further sunny spells and showers. Though

01:02across central and southern parts, fewer showers, so it might be quite a dry day for many areas

01:07and feeling a little bit warmer, temperatures a degree or two up and a bit more sunshine, which

01:12is going to make things feel a little bit more pleasant. Into the evening, still more showers,

01:18yes, particularly into the west, but they're eventually clearing away. But then once again,

01:23another band following on behind, more cloud, outbreaks of rain leading us into an unsettled

01:28start for the weekend. Once again, it could turn quite blustery at times, particularly across

01:33the south, and yes, there is a risk of some heavy and persistent downpours too. But once

01:37again, particularly across the very far northeast of Scotland, remaining mostly dry here, some clearer

01:42skies, so temperatures dipping down a bit more, but once again, many areas seeing quite a mild

01:47start. That obviously being offset by the outbreaks of rain, which are set to continue through much

01:52of the day. And we do need to keep an eye out on these areas of rain, particularly across

01:56the south, turning very heavy through the course of the day, potentially seeing some quite thundery

02:00outbreaks. So keep an eye on our social media channels and on our website, as there is a

02:04chance we could see some warnings. But otherwise, an unsettled start to the weekend. Sunny spells,

02:10showers, a risk of thundery downpours, and temperatures once again, mid to high teens,

02:14but that being offset by the unsettled weather.

02:17Those showers eventually clearing away into the evening as that low pressure drifts its

02:22way eastwards once more, and then a slight ridge of high pressure on Sunday, so that's

02:26certainly going to be the better day of the weekend. But look out behind me, further frontal

02:30systems, further areas of low pressure bringing brought towards us, almost like a conveyor belt

02:35as the jet stream shifts them towards the country. So more changeable, more unsettled weather

02:40as we head into next week. But of course, for more information on that, subscribe to our YouTube
