00:00Hello there. Southern England saw its driest July on record last month. And whilst the first few

00:05days of August have been wet for many, this rain hasn't made its way down towards the far southeast,

00:11where again through the next few days it will mostly dry apart from perhaps one or two showers.

00:16Now for Tuesday evening, it's damp outside across much of Wales, this rain extending towards the

00:21North Midlands as well as northern parts of England. Across the far northwest of Scotland,

00:26outbreaks of rain, a strong wind here, this rain making inroads across the western side of

00:30Scotland, Northern Ireland through the night with some showers ahead of it. Now down towards the

00:35West Country, yes we'll see some patchy rain and drizzle to start the day on Tuesday. It's going

00:39to be muggy here, in fact muggy across much of England and Wales, uncomfortable particularly

00:43across eastern counties of England. Yet again, temperatures hovering around 18, 19 degrees

00:47Celsius. So first thing on Wednesday morning, rather cloudy. This little bit of rain here

00:53across the Midlands, central southern England, slowly pushes towards East Anglia and perhaps

00:57just moves in towards the home counties but never really amounts to very much. The rain across the

01:02eastern side of Scotland fizzles out, really disintegrates into showers and these showers

01:07will then poke holes in the clouds. So a brighter afternoon to come certainly for the north and the

01:11west of Scotland as the winds ease. Showers also for Northern Ireland and some showers across

01:16central and eastern parts of Scotland could turn out to be quite pokey in places with some brighter

01:21skies further south across England and Wales to end the day and feeling very warm if not hot again

01:26towards the southeast again with some sunshine coming through 29 degrees Celsius, generally

01:31around 22 to 26 Celsius. Now through Thursday we'll see a showery start to the day across Scotland

01:37but these showers will tend to clear. A few are covering the western side of Scotland through the

01:41afternoon, most places though fine and dry and temperatures not as high as they have been.

01:46Now through Friday, yet again it's the west, we'll see those showers particularly towards the far

01:50northwest, some brighter weather coming through, temperatures around average for this time of year

01:54and then high pressure builds from the south and what that means, a settled weekend away from the

01:59far northwest of Scotland where you should see some rain on Saturday. All in all, a pleasant

02:04weekend to come and temperatures, well, feeling warm in the sunshine. Bye bye.
