00:00Hello there, welcome to your forecast for Friday. It's a classic setup of a

00:04northwest wind, a cold wind at that, delivering showers towards the western

00:08side of the country and in shelter towards the east some brighter skies.

00:12Before that though we do have a weather front straddling the country bringing

00:16with it outbreaks of rain. The rain pushing from the west towards the east

00:19through Thursday evening. You see the showers following. So a wet evening to

00:24come as the rain slowly clears towards the east coast. It will be a slow process

00:28across this part of the country, eastern Scotland and eastern England and some

00:32strong winds particularly towards the eastern side of England. Even so it will

00:36dry up here and then we'll see some clearing skies allowing temperatures to

00:40fall quite quickly. So it's going to be a cold night with a fairly widespread

00:44frost particularly towards the north as temperatures dip down to sub-zero across

00:48Scotland, northern England and even further south in rural spots we could

00:52see some pockets of frost. But the other feature of the weather as we head into

00:55tomorrow morning will be those showers. A mix of rain, hail and thunder across

00:59western Scotland, northern Ireland, northwest England as well as Wales. You

01:02can see where the brightest weather will be across eastern Scotland and eastern

01:06England. Some fine conditions coming through here but it will be a chilly old

01:10start to the day. A few showers making their way down towards the west country

01:13as well and quite a keen breeze that northwest wind making it feel quite

01:16chilly as we head through the morning and into the afternoon. So this is the

01:20picture through the morning, not a lot of change through the afternoon. You can see

01:23this weather front here, very slow moving across the North Sea so for the

01:28likes of East Norfolk and East Suffolk you could continue to see more clouds

01:32and some outbreak terrain and also that strong wind eventually clearing these

01:36parts. Wherever you are though most places seeing some brighter weather, the

01:39best of the sunshine, eastern and central parts of Scotland, eastern and southern

01:43parts of England and even in shelter across East Wales. Scattered showers for

01:47the west country continue as well as Wales, northwest England, southwestern

01:51parts of Scotland as well as Northern Ireland but they'll lose their intensity

01:54through the latter part of the day as temperatures rise around four to six

01:57seven degrees Celsius. So through Friday evening and into Saturday we'll see some

02:02clearer skies yet again and again temperatures will fall so expect a

02:06fairly widespread frost particularly across more central and eastern areas

02:09before more cloud arrives and then more rain. The rain will push across the

02:14country yet again through Saturday so some wet and windy weather to come but

02:17the air will be milder setting the scene for a trend in our weather as we

02:21head through the latter part of the weekend and into next week. Bye bye.
