00:00Hello there, very good afternoon. If you are heading to Wimbledon during today, there could

00:06be some thunderstorms around. In addition to some heavy rain across Kent first thing this

00:10morning, we've also seen this feature pushing across parts of the Midlands, providing some

00:14quite intense downpours and also some rumbles of thunder in the mixture. As we head throughout

00:19this afternoon, we are expecting that to continue its journey south eastwards and as such there

00:23is a yellow thunderstorm warning enforced across these areas of England with some hail, lightning

00:29and strong gusty winds possible in addition to those intense downpours of rain. It should

00:35hopefully have cleared its way through for parts of Silverstone for the British Grand Prix,

00:40but as mentioned, there is potential that some of that rain does affect the likes of Wimbledon

00:44into the start of this afternoon. There'll be some lighter showers skirting through elsewhere,

00:48a reasonable amount of cloud around for many of us, though some sunshine should break through

00:52from northern Scotland into the afternoon. Temperatures are expected to be around average

00:57for this time of the year, sort of around 17, 18 degrees Celsius for Northern Ireland and Scotland,

01:03closer towards 22, 24 degrees Celsius further towards the south. There is though a brisk breeze

01:09around in many places, so that will make it feel a touch cooler when you are stepping outside.

01:14That breeze will turn a bit stronger through the North Channel during this forthcoming evening,

01:19so some coast of Northern Ireland, parts of Dumfries and Galloway, as well across the Isle of Man,

01:23could turn quite gusty for a time. The breeze though is pushing a lot of this cloud and rain further

01:29southwards, so further spells of some locally heavy rain for England and Wales, but clearer spells

01:34will tend to develop for areas further towards the north, that leading to a relatively fresh night

01:39in places. Temperatures in towns and cities dropping around to 11, 14 degrees Celsius, but we could see

01:45single figures across some rural parts of Scotland as we kick off Monday morning.

01:49Do take note of some of that heavy rain that could be around first thing across parts of Northern

01:55Wales, Moseside, Cheshire, but also across the southeast of England as well. It will eventually

02:00clear its way off and we should see the sunshine breaking through a touch more readily compared to

02:05what we have seen over the weekend. Still a few showers to watch out for, particularly around some

02:09coastal districts, but there will be a lot of fine dry weather around for many of us as well.

02:14Again, temperatures relatively similar to today, mid to high teens across the north pushing towards

02:1923 degrees Celsius in parts of Wales and southern England. The breeze though still in place, so that

02:25again will make it feel a touch cooler when you do step outside. And aside from the odd heavy shower

02:31that we could see developing across northeastern coasts of the UK during Monday evening, there will

02:37be a fair amount of dry weather as we end off the day as well. It's all because high pressure is

02:42beginning to build in from the Atlantic and particularly from midweek onwards, it's looking like it's going to

02:48develop across many areas of the UK, bringing us plenty of settled conditions, a decent amount

02:53of sunshine as well, and that sunshine will start heating things up and we are expecting

02:57temperatures to rise later on in the week and towards next weekend, potentially back up

03:02towards 30 degrees Celsius in places. So do stay up to date with all the latest details as we head

03:09over this forthcoming week. You can of course do that by subscribing to the YouTube channel

03:13and we'll see you again very soon. Bye-bye.
