00:00Hi there. It's been a cloudy start for much of the UK and it's going to stay generally

00:06cloudy especially in the west where there will be some outbreaks of light rain throughout

00:10much of the afternoon. Brighter skies in the east with some cloud breaks for northern Scotland,

00:16for parts of eastern England as well but generally a lot of medium cloud here, lower cloud further

00:22west for southwest Scotland, northern Ireland, western England and Wales where there will

00:26be some of these outbreaks of mainly light rain continuing into the afternoon. Perhaps

00:31some moderate showers for northern Ireland however, some more persistent rain pushing

00:35into Cornwall by the end of the afternoon. Feeling cool here but a little warmer there

00:41where we've got the cloud breaks further east. Into the evening and these spells of light

00:48rain tend to migrate north-eastwards into southern and western Scotland, parts of northern

00:52England. They'll come and go through the night I think and by the end of the night

00:57there will be the signs of some more persistent rain into the south coast of England but generally

01:03a little drier and clearer towards the east. However, most places keep the cloud and as

01:08a result a mild night, 14 or 15 Celsius. Tuesday starts off with this low pressure to the south

01:14of the UK, some heavy rain for the Channel Islands and then that heavy rain developing

01:18more widely across central and eastern England as the day progresses. So initially dry for

01:24central and southern areas on the whole but quite quickly this persistent and heavy rain

01:29pushes into southern England and then the Midlands and eastern England by the afternoon.

01:35Some large rainfall totals in places could cause issues, a yellow warning in force but

01:40it will brighten up towards the west, northern Ireland especially, southwest Scotland, south

01:45Wales. Some heavy showers though developing here, hit and miss downpours and for northern

01:50Scotland some brighter skies on one or two showers but generally cloudy elsewhere and

01:55under the cloud a little cooler and where we've got the rainfall, well it certainly

01:59will have an impact on temperatures, mid-teens at best, where that rainfall persists across

02:04parts of Yorkshire, Lincolnshire for example, throughout much of the afternoon. So a reverse

02:10of fortunes if you like on Tuesday afternoon with the brightest skies to the west and higher

02:15temperatures here as a result. The showers in the west tend to ease into the evening.

02:19This rainfall continues for much of the evening however so a wet day to come for some places.

02:24It's a persistent rain throughout most of the day. Clearer skies towards the west and

02:31a sign of something a little different from mid-week. Wednesday, Thursday look drier and

02:36clearer, some fog patches forming overnight but generally fine during the day before a

02:41band of rain rushes in from the west on Friday. We'll keep you updated as always on social

02:46media. Bye bye.
