00:00Hello there. Compared to last weekend, the weather has been very different during the

00:05course of Saturday, with temperatures in the mid-twenties and a fair amount of cloud. And

00:10the latest radar is showing a cold front sinking south, and that is bringing outbreaks of rain

00:15across Northern Ireland and Northern England. And that band of cloud and rain continues

00:21to sink southwards overnight tonight, reaching North Wales and the North Midlands by early

00:27Sunday morning. It's also accompanied with some fairly windy conditions near Irish Sea

00:32coastal areas. Overnight temperatures staying firmly in double figures certainly across

00:38the south, although further north where we do see some clearer skies across Scotland,

00:42those temperatures dipping into single figures in some rural spots. So it's largely a dry

00:49start for many of us on Sunday morning, although clouds starting to spill in from the west

00:55during the course of Sunday morning, with outbreaks of rain and drizzle reaching the

01:02moors of the south west and Wales during the course of the afternoon. Temperatures close

01:07to average for the time of year, with highs of 24 across the south and 20 across the north

01:13of Scotland. So that cloud and rain across the west will continue to move eastwards overnight

01:21Sunday, although further north we do see some clearing skies across Northern England and

01:26Scotland, and a few isolated showers across the Western Isles. And that unsettled theme

01:32continues into the new working week, with further areas of cloud and rain expected across

01:38the country during the course of Monday and Tuesday, also becoming increasingly humid

01:43across the south at times. There's also a hint that the weather may settle down a little

01:48later in the week. Thank you for listening and please check our social media channels
