Weekend weather – Will the sunshine last this weekend? - video Dailymotion

Met Office

A change in the weather means cloudier skies for most this weekend. There will be showers around too and these could be heavy, but the downpours will be hit and miss and some places will dodge them and still get some sun. Alex Deakin has the details.

00:00Hello.

00:01Welcome to your weekend forecast

00:02from the Met Office.

00:03It's been a sunny week so far,

00:06but the weather patterns are all

00:07change. Now, this weekend will

00:09still bring some sunshine,

00:11but overall, it's much cloudier

00:12than it has been.

00:13And most places are going to see

00:15some showers, too.

00:16And in some spots, those showers

00:17could be on the heavy side.

00:19Why the change?

00:20Well, we've replaced high pressure

00:21with low pressure, and it's

00:23kind of coming up from the

00:24southeast, which means our winds

00:26are coming in from the east.

00:27And the North Sea is not warm

00:29at this time of year.

00:30So a cooler feel, which will

00:32really start through Friday,

00:34will continue into the weekend.

00:35And so particularly these eastern

00:36coasts may well stay fairly

00:38misty and murky.

00:39Outbreaks of rain covering

00:41northern England on and off, of

00:42course, Scotland through Saturday

00:44and maybe moving into Northern

00:45Ireland. Further south, maybe a

00:46dry start to the weekend.

00:48But here we could see some

00:50sunshine developing and that will

00:51also then spark some showers.

00:53So it's sunshine and showers

00:55across the south.

00:55Not everywhere will catch one.

00:57You may just stay dry and bright.

00:59And in the sunshine, although not

01:00as warm as it has been,

01:02temperatures could still get into

01:03the high teens, maybe even low

01:0520s in one or two spots.

01:06And the winds won't be as strong

01:07across the south coast.

01:08So it may actually feel a little

01:10warmer here.

01:11But there will be heavy showers

01:12around. The east coast will be

01:13particularly chilly with that

01:15breeze coming in from the North

01:17Sea.

01:18On Sunday, the area of low pressure

01:20is a little closer.

01:21The isobars are spreading out,

01:22though, so the breeze will

01:23probably be a little less.

01:25Now, that means that the showers

01:26may become quite slow moving

01:28across the country on Sunday.

01:30They'll still be hit and miss.

01:31And probably across the south,

01:32it'll be a dry and a bright start

01:34with some sunshine.

01:35Again, a lot of cloud further north

01:37with showers, outbreaks

01:39of rain across the northeast of

01:40Scotland. And then we'll see the

01:41showers developing elsewhere

01:43again.

01:44As I said, hit and miss and not

01:45everywhere seeing those showers and

01:47will again be some places that

01:49avoid them and hang on to the

01:51bright and sunny weather.

01:52It won't be as warm as recent days,

01:54but temperatures still getting up

01:56when the sun's out into the high

01:57teens, maybe the low 20s.

01:59Again, parts of that east coast

02:01where it stays misty and murky

02:02will struggle to get much of a 12

02:04or 13 degrees Celsius.

02:06So a bit of a mixed picture through

02:07the course of the weekend.

02:08Certainly much more cloud, more

02:09showers around than there have been.

02:11But there'll still be some warm

02:13sunshine to be had as well.

02:15For all the very latest details,

02:16follow the Met Office on social

02:18media.
