00:00Hello, there. Welcome to your weather update from The Meteorolist, where as we go through

00:03the next few days, it is likely to remain unsettled across the country. And after a

00:08brief colder interlude today, we will start to see some milder air once again return from

00:14the Atlantic. With the jet stream close by, it's always going to indicate that it is going

00:18to be a fairly changeable week ahead. That's not such the case out there at the moment.

00:24As we go through the rest of Bank Holiday Monday, for most, it's actually quite a sunny

00:28one. Still a few freezing fog patches lingering, especially for Northern Ireland. But for most,

00:34as it's the first Bank Holiday of the year, it's a fairly decent one out there, with temperatures

00:38in the south potentially reaching 10 degrees for most high single figures. But up across

00:43Scotland, still quite chilly here. Temperatures around 2 to 3 degrees, especially where we've

00:48still got some lying snow. So going into this evening, quite a cold evening to come. A white

00:53to red frost across many parts of Scotland, Northern England and Northern Ireland. Could

00:57see a few icy spots too. But as the night goes on, we will start to see this band of

01:02rain moving with a strengthening wind. So actually, temperatures will rise as the night

01:07goes on. So these are the temperatures we expect as we start Tuesday morning. So double

01:12figures in the south-west. Maybe still just hanging on to a frost up across the very far

01:18north-east of Scotland.

01:20So back to work for most of us tomorrow. In Scotland, it is another Bank Holiday, of course.

01:25But for most, it's going to be a pretty miserable start to Tuesday. Plenty of rain around. And

01:30as the afternoon goes on, another band of rain will move in from the south-west. This

01:35could be quite heavy, especially across parts of Wales, Northern England and Scotland. A

01:39warning is in force for parts of Scotland as we go into Tuesday afternoon. So some pretty

01:44miserable conditions. Could just see some localised flooding here too. But it will be

01:49fairly mild for most of England and Wales. Double figures as we go through Tuesday, and

01:54even in Scotland and Northern Ireland, it will still be feeling fairly mild. Maybe

01:58just hanging on to the cold air in the very far north of Scotland.

02:03So then looking ahead for the rest of the week, as I mentioned, it is going to remain

02:06fairly unsettled. Always the wettest weather in the west of the UK, and it will also be

02:12quite windy at times, especially as we go through Tuesday night and into Wednesday.

02:16You can always check us out on our social media channels for the latest information,

02:22and also our websites where all the warnings will always be up to date. But that's all

02:26from me for now.
