Transcript
00:01Hello, welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office.
00:04Heavy and thundery showers have been on the cards for many of us to start the weekend.
00:08It doesn't look like much is changing as we head into the start of the new week.
00:12Low pressure is very much in charge of our weather at the moment.
00:15Various weather fronts spinning around, spiralling around that area of low pressure, bringing
00:19bands of rain and showers across the UK as we head through Monday, Tuesday and even into
00:24Wednesday and Thursday too.
00:27Back to the rest of Saturday though and it's all eyes down towards the south west as we
00:30see this weather front pushing an area of rain and showers up across parts of Wales and south
00:35west England.
00:36Some hail, some thunder mixed in here too.
00:38Some heavy downpours are likely and we'll continue to see some outbreaks of rain across eastern
00:43parts of Scotland into the early hours of Sunday morning.
00:46Perhaps staying a little bit drier in between, however remaining rather quite cloudy overnight
00:50and that does mean another quite mild night to come.
00:52Temperatures widely in the mid, if not high teens for many of us.
00:56So perhaps once again another uncomfortable night for sleeping across the UK.
01:01That does mean quite a cloudy and perhaps quite a damp start for many of us on Sunday morning,
01:05particularly across the south west.
01:07We'll continue to see those showers spiralling around that area of low pressure, pushing
01:11their way northwards.
01:12And we'll continue to see some longer spells of rain pushing north across parts of Scotland
01:16too.
01:17As we go towards the afternoon, almost anywhere could see a heavy or thundery downpour.
01:21But we'll start to see a bit more brightness, a bit more sunshine developing between those
01:24showers.
01:25Still remaining a little bit breezy across the south west too.
01:28But where you do catch that sunshine, it will be feeling warm.
01:30The sun's strong at this time of year, so 24, 25, perhaps even 26 degrees across the south.
01:37And even in the north, we'll see those temperatures reaching into the low 20s.
01:42As we then go through the rest of Sunday evening, we'll continue to see those showers spiralling
01:46around that area of low pressure, pushing their way northwards, perhaps merging to some
01:50longer spells of rain across parts of Northern Ireland and Western Scotland.
01:54Further showers then arriving across the very far south as we head into the early hours
01:58of Monday morning.
01:59But parts of Wales, central, northern, southwestern parts of England perhaps turning a little
02:03bit drier into the first part of Monday.
02:06Some clear spells here.
02:07However, still quite a mild night on the cards for most of us, although perhaps not quite
02:11as mild as Saturday night.
02:12Temperatures still holding up into the double figures, though perhaps a little less uncomfortable
02:16for sleeping compared to previous nights.
02:20But once again, quite a cloudy and damp start for some of us on Monday morning, particularly
02:24across the southeast and also across parts of Northern Ireland and Western Scotland, where
02:28we'll continue to see some longer spells of rain.
02:31A bit of a brighter start across parts of South West England, Wales, Northern England.
02:34But as we go towards the afternoon, almost anywhere could see a heavy downpour.
02:39These could contain hail, could contain thunder, and some longer spells of rain across parts
02:43of Northern Ireland and Western Scotland, too.
02:47Once again, where you do catch the sunshine, though, it will still be feeling pleasantly warm.
02:5024, 25, perhaps even 26 degrees again, and once again across the north, temperatures getting
02:56into the low 20s, however, feeling a little cooler if you are stuck underneath that cloud
03:00and rain through the afternoon.
03:03As we then look ahead towards the rest of the week, heavy, thundery showers are still
03:06on the cards for many of us, so do make sure you hit subscribe to our YouTube channel to

03:12Bye for now.
