00:00Hello there, a very good afternoon to you. The umbrellas have already proven useful for

00:05some of us so far today. This is the earlier radar sequence from this morning, showing

00:10a scattering of showers that have developed across several regions. But if we zoom into

00:14the southern half of the UK, you'll notice that some of these showers have quite a bright

00:18colour to them, indicating they've been on the sharper, heavier side. And it is these

00:23regions into the afternoon that could continue to see the odd sharp downpour, particularly

00:27across the far south coast of England, as well as up into East Anglia. Those continuing

00:32downpours could provide a hefty amount of rain in a short period of time, because they will

00:37be slow moving due to the light winds that we've got around today. The odd rumble of thunder

00:40is also possible. There'll be a scattering of showers across the northern half of the UK

00:45as well, but they'll tend to be on the lighter side. And there is a reasonable amount of cloud

00:50around, but some brighter and sunnier spells should poke their way through. If you manage

00:54to see that sunshine, it will feel relatively pleasant. Temperatures around average at this

00:58point in the year, ranging between 19 and 24 degrees Celsius.

01:03If you're heading out this evening, do hold onto those umbrellas, because the showers will

01:07continue for a time into the start of forthcoming nights, gradually easing off more so as we head

01:13towards midnight. And generally into the back end of the nights, the cloud will break up a

01:17touch more as well, allowing for some clearer spells. A few mist and fog patches may develop

01:22in places, but generally a fine night to come for many. A mild one as well. Certainly in our

01:27towns and cities, temperatures will be holding up around 14 to 16 degrees Celsius. It'll be a touch

01:32fresher in some real areas to kick off Thursday morning. As we head into the morning, we will

01:38start to see more rain just arriving for parts of eastern England. Some uncertainty just in regards

01:43to how far west this could spread, but certainly for parts of East Anglia, eventually down towards

01:47London, we may start to see the odd heavier bursts of rain for a time. The rest of the sunshine will

01:52be further towards the west, where it should be a relatively fine day to come here. That difference

01:57in conditions will also influence our temperatures. Certainly under the cloudier skies across the

02:01southeast of England, temperatures will be held back here with a slightly cooler feel and a brisker

02:06breeze in place. But with light winds and sunshine across the west, temperatures will again be climbing

02:10into the low to mid 20 degrees Celsius. It's all changed though as we head into Thursday evening.

02:17Whilst the rain in the southeast will tend to ease off and fizzle away, we'll start to see the cloud

02:22thickening for parts of Northern Ireland and Western Scotland as a band of rain slips in here. This is all

02:28associated with a weather front that's going to push its way into the northwest of the UK for the end of

02:32Thursday and into Friday. Meanwhile, we've got a ridge of high pressure that will build in across the

02:37southeast and so for Friday it's a reversal of fortunes with the slightly wetter and damper

02:42conditions up towards the northwest and the clearer and brighter conditions down towards the southeast.

02:48We'll have plenty more updates though of what you can expect over the forthcoming days on the YouTube

02:52channel and our full 10-day trend will be posted later on today as well, so do subscribe for that.

02:57Otherwise, enjoy the rest of your day. Bye-bye.
