00:00Hello, feeling very pleasant out there today and today perhaps being one of the warmest

00:04days of the year so far.

00:07So the current satellite picture shows a good deal of clear skies right the way across the

00:12country, so an ample supply of spring sunshine for many of us. And that theme continues throughout

00:17this afternoon, although rather breezy, especially across parts of the southwest and the west

00:23and some of those winds quite gusty.

00:25A warm day with temperatures reaching into the high teens the further west you are, although

00:30feeling cooler across eastern areas with that wind off of the North Sea.

00:36Now a dry night tonight with clear skies for many areas, although clouds just starting

00:41to fringe into parts of the southwest and eventually Northern Ireland during the second

00:46half of the night. Overnight temperatures dipping into low single figures, but given

00:51the strength of that wind, frost being held at bay for many of us.

00:56So another dry and fine day for most people tomorrow, although a little bit more on the

01:00way of cloud across parts of eastern Scotland. And during the course of the afternoon, outbreaks

01:04of cloud and showery rain perhaps just moving into parts of East Anglia. A cooler day tomorrow

01:10with temperatures only rising up to 11 or 12 in the south and 10 further north.

01:17And looking at the outlook period, so high pressure stays in charge throughout next week,

01:22so good to the dry and fine weather to come, although a little bit more in the way of cloud

01:26and temperatures recovering midweek.
