00:00Good afternoon. Welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office. So, low pressure
00:05still very much in charge through the rest of Bank Holiday Monday, situated out towards
00:09the north of the U.K. And then another area of low pressure waiting in the wings through
00:13the rest of Bank Holiday Monday, and particularly into Tuesday and Wednesday as well, bringing
00:18further outbreaks of rain spreading their way northwards as we head in towards the middle
00:22part of the week. ISOBAR is slowly spacing apart, so winds turning a little lighter through
00:27the middle part of the week, but there will still be plenty of rain and showers around.
00:32Back to the rest of this afternoon, and plenty of showers across parts of Scotland and northern
00:36England. These turning heavy and thundery in places, so we could see some localised
00:41flooding, as those showers could be quite slow moving in places. Plenty of showers still
00:45across much of England and Wales, although not quite as heavy as we saw yesterday, and
00:49Northern Ireland still seeing some showers too. There will be some sunny spells between
00:53those showers, and it will be feeling quite pleasant in that sunshine, perhaps a little
00:56lower those temperatures than we've seen over recent days. We could see highs of 17,
01:0018, maybe 19 degrees, which is around about average for the time of year. As we head through
01:07the rest of Monday, though, all eyes out towards the southwestern area of rain pushing up from
01:11the southwest through Monday evening and into the start of Tuesday, and those heavy showers
01:16gradually starting to ease across the northern half of the U.K., with some clear spells across
01:20much of Scotland, northern and eastern parts of England. But across Northern Ireland, Wales
01:24and southwestern parts of England, it's a cloudy start to the day on Tuesday, and a
01:28mild start too. Temperatures under that cloud and rain holding up in the double figures,
01:32maybe 12 or 13 degrees, but a little bit chillier under those clearer skies, perhaps as low
01:37as 6 or 7 in places. So it does mean a cloudy and damp start for many of us on Tuesday.
01:43Northern Ireland, Wales and southern parts of England seeing that heaviest rain through
01:47the morning, slowly pushing its way north and eastwards as we head through towards the
01:51middle part of the day. Some early brightness across parts of Scotland and northern England,
01:55but that rain eventually arriving through the afternoon and turning heavy over any high
01:59ground. We'll see some showers breaking out as well across Northern Ireland, Wales and
02:03southern parts of England through Tuesday afternoon, and generally a bit of a cloudier
02:07day again. But temperatures around about average for the time of year, although perhaps feeling
02:10a little cooler under that cloud and particularly cooler under that frontal band of rain.
02:16Through the rest of Tuesday, the rain does continue to push its way northwards, although
02:20perhaps lingering for a time across parts of Scotland. And we'll see further outbreaks
02:24of rain across Wales and southern parts of England as well, and plenty of heavy showers
02:27around overnight Tuesday and into the start of Wednesday. There will then still be plenty
02:32of showers around through Wednesday and Thursday, but make sure you subscribe to our YouTube
02:36channel so you can find out more about that closer to the time. Bye bye.
