00:00Hello there, welcome to your weather update from the Met Office.

00:04Rain or showers over the next 24 hours into Wednesday, although the south-east will see

00:10some drier, brighter weather through Wednesday afternoon.

00:13Currently, through Tuesday evening, a band of rain straddles the country north to south.

00:19It's pushing eastwards, so most places seeing a dose of wet weather overnight, with showers

00:24to follow.

00:25Strongest winds will be across the Outer Hebrides, Irish Sea coast, and quite a keen breeze extending

00:31from the eastern side of Scotland up towards the Northern Isles, where again, we'll see

00:35some outbreaks of rain.

00:37Temperatures then holding up overnight, coming in around 11 to 14 degrees Celsius.

00:42So that leads into a bit of a wet start to the day across eastern parts of Scotland.

00:46Further west, you may even see some brighter skies for a time.

00:50Still showers, though, lurking across the Western Isles.

00:53More rain, showery rain at that, coming in across the south-west of Scotland down towards

00:57the Isle of Man, clipping Wales as well as the West Country, and a bit of a showery start

01:02for Northern Ireland.

01:03Now, across the central zone of the country, that's the Midlands up towards Northern England,

01:07always more cloud, with some patchy rain extending from Sussex across towards East Anglia and

01:14clipping Yorkshire as well as Aberdeenshire.

01:16It's moving quite swiftly towards the North Sea, a legacy of cloud here, but certainly

01:22some brighter skies through the afternoon.

01:25At the same time, showers will develop.

01:27They'll develop in situ, become slow-moving, and so if you catch one, it could last for

01:32a while, also with the risk of thunder.

01:35And with any heavier bursts, the winds will turn quite gusty.

01:39But notice across eastern counties of England, drier skies through the end of the day, and

01:44across England and Wales, those showers become a bit more scattered, always frequent further

01:48north and west.

01:50Most temperatures in any sunshine come in around 20 to 22, 23 degrees Celsius fresher

01:56across western Scotland, as well as Northern Ireland, 17 or 18 here.

02:01Here's your outlook through Thursday.

02:03Again, it's the chance of those showers just coming and going.

02:07They'll be heavy at times, slow-moving, more cloud across the north-east of Scotland, with

02:11some outbreaks of rain tending to clear through the afternoon.

02:15So here's your broader picture through Thursday and into Friday.

02:19Low pressure never too far away.

02:20In fact, the winds will pick up further on Friday, associated with some showery bursts

02:25of rain across much of the country, but then slight hints of something more settled coming

02:30in from the south through Friday and into the weekend, as more cloud arrives across

02:35the western side of Scotland into the weekend as well, with some outbreaks of rain.

02:39So all in all, yes, still some showers lurking around through Saturday and Sunday, a chance

02:44of sunshine and feeling warm in that sun as temperatures rise into the 20s.
