00:00Hi there, good morning. Still some showers around this morning, but they're going to
00:04ease and fade away by the afternoon, leading to drier, brighter and increasingly warm weather
00:10during the rest of the day, and in fact as high pressure builds in during the rest of the week.
00:15Now we are likely to see some showers running into Norfolk and Suffolk during the morning and
00:20early part of the afternoon, but eventually they'll disappear, leaving behind some cloud,
00:24and there'll also be a thickening of the cloud for Northern Ireland and Western Scotland,
00:27along with a few dribs and drabs of rain, but for the vast majority, it's simply a sunny day,
00:33and with lighter winds compared with the last few days, it's going to feel much warmer,
00:37temperatures hitting 24, 25 Celsius in the south, high teens, low 20s elsewhere. Now the thicker
00:44cloud and those outbreaks rain into the northwest will drift east and south into the rest of Scotland,
00:50parts of Northern England, West Wales and the southwest overnight, but any rain tending to be
00:55light and patchy, rather drizzly across Western Scotland, whilst it stays dry and clear towards
01:01the east and the southeast, and it's a less cool night compared with the last few nights, but not
01:06quite as muggy as it's going to get this week. Towards the east and the south, plenty of sunshine
01:12to begin things on Wednesday, thicker cloud to the northwest, and it's a damp start for Western
01:18Scotland in particular, the West Highlands, for example. But the rain tending to fizzle away later
01:24in the day. One or two showers are possible for parts of Wales, for example. Exmoor could see a
01:29shower, but these will be very few and far between. With plenty of sunshine across England and Wales,
01:35temperatures will reach 25 to 27 Celsius in the warmest spots, always a little cooler towards the
01:40west and the north. But as we go through the next few days, we're going to see high pressure build
01:46from the southwest, and that's going to shove the weather fronts that are causing the cloud in the
01:51north further north, and that high pressure will bring widespread warmth by Thursday and Friday,
01:58as well as sunny skies. So this hot spell that's coming up at the end of the week won't be restricted
02:03to the south and southeast. It's going to be much more widespread. In fact, the highest temperatures
02:09may well be towards the west and the northwest at this time, peaking on Friday, Saturday and into Sunday.
02:16We'll keep you updated right here on the Met Office YouTube channel. Bye-bye.
