Hello there, a very good morning to you. Many of us can look forward to a fine and settled
00:05
week to come, and even as we kick off this Monday morning, it is quite bright for many
00:10
areas of Scotland. A little cool in places with a brisk northwesterly wind, but away
00:14
from the cloud around coastal districts there is some sunshine breaking through as well
00:17
for Northern Ireland. Do watch out for a few showers around North Wales, parts of North
00:22
West England, and there is just some heavy rain lingering around Kent and Sussex first
00:26
thing this morning, but that will eventually be clearing its way off. We could see a few
00:30
showers just skirting eastern coasts of England, and maybe a few just bubbling up inland as
00:35
well, but for many areas it will manage to stay dry, and the sunshine should break through
00:39
fairly readily, particularly across the north and the west. In that sunshine it will feel
00:45
fairly pleasant, temperatures around average for this time of year, generally 18 to 23 degrees
00:50
Celsius, but with that brisk northwesterly wind still in play for some others it could just
00:55
feel a touch cooler when you do eventually step outside. Generally though it will be
00:59
fine and dry as we head into the evening periods, though the odd sharp shower looking like it
01:05
might develop across parts of North East England, again just skirting their way down a little
01:10
closer to East Anglia throughout the night. Clear spells though remaining for the vast majority,
01:15
and underneath those clear skies again it will turn quite chilly in locations, particularly
01:20
for the time of year. Rural parts of Scotland could see as low as low single figures,
01:25
in places, a touch of grass frost even, but generally towns and cities will hold up
01:29
just in double digits. It does though mean, despite the chilly start, that there will be
01:35
plentiful amounts of sunshine to kick off on Tuesday morning. Cloud tending to build a touch
01:40
more for Northern Ireland tomorrow and Western Scotland, with some outbreaks of rain arriving
01:43
here later in the day, and again there is always the chance that we see a few showers
01:47
skirting eastern coast of England where the cloud may plague us a little bit more as well.
01:52
But inland it will be another fine day, and actually with lighter winds in general that
01:57
will help make it feel a touch warmer. As well temperatures will be climbing up a little bit more,
02:03
quite widely 20-22 degrees Celsius, likely seeing highs of 24 or 25 across areas of Southern England.
02:10
Those temperatures though are very likely to be climbing even further as we head throughout the rest of
02:15
this week. Plentiful amounts of sunshine and day-on-day heating could see us
02:19
reach close to 30 degrees Celsius in places. We'll have more updates on that in our full week ahead
02:25
video that will be uploaded to YouTube later on today, so do subscribe and hit the notification
02:30
bell so you know when that is out. Otherwise, enjoy your day! Bye bye!
