00:00Hello again. Some locations in England were colder on the summer solstice compared to

00:06the winter solstice. Oh, that's how miserable Monday was. But it's looking considerably

00:12drier and brighter for many places today. With the best of the sunshine in the north,

00:17still some cloud and some outbreaks of rain towards the far southeast. This weather front

00:23slowly clearing away and then the next weather front makes an appearance into the northwest

00:28to bring a return to cloud and some damp weather later in the day for Western Scotland and

00:33Northern Ireland. You can see it just edging into the Western Isles there into the afternoon.

00:37Otherwise, for the rest of Northern Ireland, much of Scotland, Northern England as well,

00:41long spells of sunshine. Legacy of cloudy skies, cumulus, stratocumulus generally for

00:48southern and southeastern parts of England. Keen breeze here. Eventually the last of the

00:54rain clearing from Kent. But of course with the cloud and the breeze, it's going to stay

00:58on the cool side in the far southeast. Mid-teens here. But where we've got brighter skies further

01:03north and west. 21, 22 Celsius possible. Feeling pleasant enough in the sunshine. The cloud

01:11does clear by and large across England and Wales during Tuesday evening. Eastern Scotland,

01:16Northern England seeing clear spells. But for much of Western Scotland, Northern Ireland

01:20and eventually northwest England, north Wales sees the cloud thicken overnight. Outbreaks

01:25of mainly light and patchy rain and drizzle here. Meanwhile, under the clear skies across

01:30England and Wales, temperatures fall away. We're looking at, in the countryside, two

01:35to five Celsius. So another particularly cool night for the time of year. Last night we

01:41got down to minus two Celsius in Altena Harrow in Scotland. Won't be the case tonight with

01:46a lot of cloud in the sky and outbreaks of rain. And a grey, damp start in northwestern

01:51areas on Wednesday morning. Much of the rain affecting coastal and hilly locations. I

01:56think northern and eastern Scotland, northeast England mostly staying dry with some bright

02:01spells and feeling warm here. 19 or 20 Celsius. Grey and damp further northwest and cool.

02:08But in the central and southeastern part of England as well as south Wales, 22, 23, possibly

02:1524 Celsius in London if we get enough sunshine. So a warmer day here compared to Tuesday.

02:21But elsewhere it's mostly cloudy and the cloud eventually makes inroads into parts of the

02:26Midlands, the rest of Wales, Cornwall into Wednesday evening. It stays clear towards

02:31the southeast. And the general trend through the rest of the week is for this rain, cloud

02:36and showers to make more and more progress further southeast. And then eventually over

02:42the weekend it turns drier and brighter for the north. Follow us on social media and we'll

02:48keep you updated on these channels. Bye bye.
