00:00Hello there, welcome to your Wednesday evening weather update from the Met Office.

00:04Thunderstorm warnings have been issued across the West Country, Wales as well as Northern

00:08Ireland through tonight and into tomorrow.

00:11The reason why?

00:12Well the air is coming in from a very warm and humid place across the near continent.

00:17Notice through Thursday quite a squeeze on the ice bars so we will see some strong winds

00:21particularly towards the east and associated with any intense downpours as this system

00:26slowly moves its way northwards.

00:28Water come through Friday and into Saturday.

00:31This time the emphasis will be across central and eastern parts of England again pushing

00:35ever northwards.

00:36Let's have a look at the warning zones though into tomorrow.

00:40The West Country and Wales particularly central and western areas as well as Northern Ireland

00:45and you can see the intense burst just moving northwards represented by these very bright

00:51echoes.

00:52Further thunderstorms are likely to expect some lightning gusts up to 50mph in places heavy

00:58downpours causing impacts particularly if you're driving.

01:01However, through this evening it's pleasant enough, it's warm outside.

01:05Quite a breeze along this east coast, some hazy sunshine to end the day.

01:09But notice these showers developing across Cornwall as well as Devon and then Somerset.

01:15They'll clip the southwest of Wales into the early hours of tomorrow morning and more

01:20waiting in the wings across the Channel Isles.

01:22All of this is moving northwards, particularly across the western side of the country.

01:26But you'll find some showery bursts just across central southern England as well.

01:31And here it's going to be a muggy night, an uncomfortable night for many.

01:34Further north, temperatures holding at 14 or 15 degrees Celsius as well.

01:39So first thing tomorrow morning, for most, it's a dry start.

01:42It's a humid one with some hazy sunshine.

01:46This massive thundery rain continues its passage northwards across Northern Ireland, Wales,

01:51the Isle of Man and then further clusters of showers, which will be thundery, will again

01:57extend across England and Wales towards southern Scotland.

02:00Here, they'll be fairly hit and miss with some sunshine in between.

02:04But notice now and again that rain does become more intense and persistent with the risk of

02:11some lightning strikes as well as hail.

02:13Temperatures then 22 towards the north there, 27 across the southeast and hotter still on Friday.

02:21So through Thursday evening, we watch as this first area of thundery rain continues pushing

02:26northwards. Again, strong winds towards the northeast of Scotland and then further

02:30showery bursts arrive towards the southwest. Again, they could turn thundery in places.

02:36Into Friday, a fine start across central and eastern areas, again with some sunshine.

02:40Northern Ireland getting away with some fine weather to start the day, but there will be

02:44some showers in the mix and they could be heavy.

02:46Now, through the morning into the afternoon, this first batch moves northwards and then notice

02:51these are developing towards the south, causing problems later on Friday and into

02:56Friday night. Here's your yellow warning for thunderstorms across East Anglia as well

02:59as the southeast. And look at these temperatures coming in around 29, if not 30, just north of

03:05London. 24 for North Wales as well as the northwest of England. Northern England also seeing that 24

03:10towards the northeast. 23 across the central belt of Scotland, humid here. 20 to 21 across Northern

03:17Ireland. And even for the Murray Firth, you'll see values coming in the low 20s.

03:23So that's the picture through Friday afternoon. Yes, it's going to be a hot and humid day for some.

03:28And let's pick up on what's happening as we head through the next 48 hours or so.

03:33So that first cluster moves northwards. And then as we head through Friday and into the evening time,

03:39more thunderstorms develop with the risk of thunder, lightning, hail and strong winds.

03:43They're again just moving northwards. But notice it's quite extensive band.

03:47It will clip Northern England as well as Scotland into Saturday as they push towards the far north.

03:52Further thunderstorms elsewhere, but turning a little better towards the south with a scattering

03:58of showers, a bit of a blusky breeze and some sunshine. And certainly you'll notice the difference

04:02on Sunday. The winds coming in from the west this time. So temperatures around 19 to 22 Celsius.

04:08And again, some showers in the mix. Now for the 10 day trend this week, check out our YouTube channel.

04:14This week it's with Ada McGillan. I'll see you later.
