00:00Hello again. Following some very lively weather through the weekend, the weather stays windy

00:05during the rest of Monday. The wind is gradually easing, still some showers around or longer

00:11spells of rain in a few spots, but increasingly we're going to see sunny spells away from

00:16the showers, especially heading towards the middle of the week as this low moves away.

00:20But around the centre of the low, isobars packed together tightly, weather fronts still

00:25nearby and so for the north and north-east of Scotland, risk of gales in exposed spots

00:30and that strong wind continuing to drive some persistent wet weather into the north-west,

00:36with rainfall totals mounting up here during the rest of Monday. Also some persistent rain

00:40at times for parts of north-west England into the north midlands. Otherwise it's showers,

00:45especially in the north and the west, one or two further east, but it's in the south

00:49and the east where we'll see the best of any sunny spells. A cold wind now though means

00:53that temperatures will be lower compared to what we've seen in recent days, 12 or 13 in

00:57the south, 9 or 10 further north. And that wind continues to blow showers into the north

01:04and the west overnight. Some of these showers funnelling through topographic gaps, so for

01:10example the Bristol Channel could see quite a number of showers coming through into parts

01:15of north-west England as well as northern Scotland. But away from the north and west

01:21of the UK, in the south and the east, temperatures will dip away under any clear spells. And

01:27where we've got some light winds in the south, a few mist patches forming overnight, temperatures

01:31dipping here, close to freezing in one or two spots. Once any mist patches disappear

01:38though on Tuesday morning, plenty of sunshine for central, southern and eastern parts of

01:42the UK. Further showers into the north and the west and some showers will get going elsewhere.

01:47But the showers will be fairly fleeting away from the north and the west and decent sunny

01:53spells in between. A slightly colder day in the north, 9 or 10 in the north of Scotland,

02:0012, 13 Celsius in the south. Out of the wind, in the sunshine, pleasant enough but that

02:05wind will have a bit more of a cold feel to it compared to how we experienced things throughout

02:10last week. Into Tuesday night, showers dying away quite widely inland, plenty of clear

02:16skies about. But you can see further showers affecting parts of north and west UK, especially

02:22around coasts. And that's the theme as we go through Wednesday and Thursday. We've got

02:26this northerly wind which will drag colder air in, particularly to the north of the UK.

02:32And showers will continue, especially around coasts. But inland, that's where we'll see

02:37the best of any clear spells or sunny spells until this weather front arrives later in

02:42the week to bring some rain by the weekend. So for the rest of this week, well, plenty

02:48of dry and sunny weather at times. There will be showers, particularly around northern and

02:52western coasts and it will feel a bit colder compared to recent days and weeks. Follow
