00:00Morning. While it may be beach weather for some today, there are more storms in the offing.

00:06Quite a warm start to the day and that heat and humidity will continue to build.

00:10We had some hefty downpours through yesterday.

00:12Overnight they've tended to ease off.

00:14Still a few showers in the west this morning and we could well see some thunderstorms breaking out around the middle of the day,

00:20in particular across parts of Northern Ireland.

00:22A few more showers then drift north into western Scotland.

00:25But the main focus for the heaviest downpours will be spreading up from the south.

00:30Before they arrive though, a good part of England, Wales, southern Scotland having a dry and a fine day with some sunshine.

00:37Not as breezy in these eastern areas as it was yesterday either.

00:41With light winds it'll feel pretty sticky I imagine as the temperatures across eastern England peak at 27, 28, maybe 29.

00:49Small chance we could hit 30 Celsius.

00:52It's not as hot further west because there's a bit more cloud around.

00:56But still for most places feeling pretty sticky, pretty humid.

01:00A little cooler and fresher in the southwest.

01:02And certainly it will turn cooler as the downpours arrive.

01:06We're expecting another batch of thunderstorms to push up from the south through the afternoon across southwest England,

01:12into south Wales, perhaps into parts of the Midlands.

01:14And then another zone of thunderstorms could move up from France into the southeast and across parts of East Anglia during this evening.

01:22So the potential for a lot of spray, a lot of surface water on the roads.

01:26These storms could be quite violent, packing hailstones and gusty winds to boot.

01:31So something to be aware of, the potential for local flooding and certainly some pretty grim travelling conditions.

01:37As always, with thunderstorms, they're going to be hit and miss.

01:40So not everywhere in the warning areas will catch these downpours.

01:44But where they do occur, they could cause some disruption.

01:46And they won't stop across the south.

01:48They will continue to march northward.

01:49So northern England joining in with those heavy downpours through the night and eventually pushing into parts of southern Scotland also.

01:57As you can imagine, with the warmth and the humidity and everything wafting up from the south,

02:01it will be another pretty warm night with temperatures certainly in towns and cities across the south and southeast

02:07staying up into the mid-teens, a little more comfortable further north.

02:13Into the weekend, and it's still going to be pretty messy.

02:16Low pressure dominating, still quite warm and humid air.

02:18Still some thunderstorms around.

02:20So we do have Met Office yellow warnings in place even into the weekend.

02:24This could be very wet for parts of northern England, northern Ireland.

02:27Some further downpours to come and spread slowly north across Scotland.

02:30By this stage, more uncertainty about exactly where those downpours are going to be.

02:34So do keep up to date with the forecast, particularly if you've got plans for Saturday.

02:38As skies brighten further south across parts of England and Wales,

02:42well, that could spark further afternoon hefty showers.

02:46But I suspect much of eastern England, a good part of southern England,

02:50although it may start a bit cloudy and showery, should turn brighter for the afternoon

02:54with some good spells of sunshine coming through.

02:56And it won't be as sticky, won't be as hot temperatures, a good few degrees down.

03:00Still probably feeling quite humid, but not as hot and humid as it will be on Friday.

03:06And that's turning fresher theme will continue as we head into Sunday as well.

03:09You can see that swirl of cloud and rain that is from an area of low pressure

03:14that will continue to track northwards during Saturday night,

03:18taking the rain away from the UK.

03:21There'll still be a few showers around on Sunday,

03:23but much cooler air is following on behind.

03:25So it won't be as humid for Sunday.

03:27It will be quite a bit fresher.

03:28And look at this area of high pressure is trying to build in from the southwest.

03:32As we head into next week, that promises quite a bit of fine weather.

03:35But that's all to come.

03:36We've still got plenty going on in the short term.
