Transcript

00:00Hello there and welcome to your Thursday morning weather update from the Met Office. It's summer

00:05solstice and for many I can promise you some warm sunshine today. We do have a weak weather

00:09front straddling the north, bringing with it more cloud just for a time before this

00:13system comes in from the west on Friday, introducing cloud and some outbreaks of rain towards more

00:18western areas before it basically breaks down to showers on Saturday across England and

00:22Wales. And then notice this, a ridge comes up from the south, high pressure in charge,

00:27a fine day on Sunday, warm sunshine, turning much warmer next week. Now for the time being

00:32we see some brighter skies emerging across Caithness, Sutherland, even the Western Isles.

00:37We run into more clouds across the central belt, even with the odd spot or two of rain

00:40and that extends towards Northern Ireland away from Belfast and Newry. For England and

00:44Wales it's a fine start to the day. You may find some shallow mist and fog patches and

00:49the sunshine may be a little bit hazy at times. However, through the morning most places will

00:55be dry. And even where we see this thicker cloud across Edinburgh, Glasgow, up towards

01:01Portrush, even here we'll see the cloud slowly thin through the morning and into the afternoon.

01:07That dampness just easing away with the strength of the sun and some brighter skies coming

01:11through. Brighter skies also for Shetland and Orkney and some fine weather further south

01:17across England and Wales. But notice some thunderstorms gathering across the low countries

01:22and there's an outside chance one or two just could clip the far south-east through

01:26the afternoon. At the same time, a small chance of a shower across the mountains of Wales.

01:32More clouds across the Western Isles through the latter part of the day. Elsewhere it's

01:35a fine end to the day. Lots of sunshine into the evening as temperatures rise to 20 to

01:3923 degrees Celsius. So that's the picture on Thursday afternoon. Into evening time then

01:45you can see this cloud and rain just clipping the far west and north of Scotland. That's

01:50the weather front we saw earlier. Thickening clouds also for Northern Ireland. It stays

01:54fine across the central and eastern areas of Scotland. Much of England and Wales into

01:58Friday morning and not as cool. Temperatures holding up there. So through the day on Friday,

02:04this cloud will continue across more western areas and again some showery rain just coming

02:09and going. Elsewhere, Friday looks fine and again a good day to be out and about. But

02:15remember, UV levels will be high with some high pollen counts as well. And we remain

02:20under dry skies anywhere from central and eastern Scotland down towards England and

02:25Wales. And later on we'll see some cloud and rain moving across Northern Ireland. But the

02:29cloud will break up at times even through the afternoon. Here's your outlook through

02:33Saturday. The chance of showers, especially across England and Wales. For Scotland, a

02:37rather cloudy start. But the cloud should break up on a much better day for Northern

02:41Ireland as that sunshine returns. And a fine day all round on Sunday with sunny spells

02:46and temperatures comfortably into the 20s.
