00:00Hello, it's been a wet start for many today and there is more heavy rain to come in places,

00:07although not for everyone during the afternoon. The wet weather arrived from the west during

00:11the evening on Monday. It then spread across western parts of the UK, a lively night for

00:16Wales and the south-west, 40-50mm in some parts of Devon. Now that rain is pushing its

00:22way eastwards and the wettest weather for the afternoon will be across Scotland, especially

00:28eastern parts of Scotland, southern upslopes of the Grampians, likely to see 50-60mm of

00:34rainfall so yellow warning in force because that could cause some trouble. Now northern

00:38England, eastern England, the rain turning more showery by the afternoon and brighter

00:41skies returning to western parts of the UK, a lovely afternoon for Northern Ireland, however

00:46it won't be long before the next batch of showers pushes into south Wales and the south-west

00:51accompanied by a gusty wind, those showers rattling through central and southern parts

00:55of the UK. The rain in the north-east pushing into the northern isles and clearing the north-east

01:01mainland eventually overnight but the wind really picking up across Shetland and Orkney,

01:07gales developing here as the heavy rain sets in. And there will be further showers across

01:11southern and western coasts of the UK but some clear spells in between and where we

01:16get clear spells and slightly lighter winds, temperatures will fall away. Low single figures

01:20for Scotland, parts of Northern Ireland, northern England and north Wales, a chill in the air

01:25first thing Wednesday, a colder start compared with recent mornings and a gap in between

01:30weather systems for many. First weather front pushing into Shetland with tight isobars here,

01:37next weather front bringing some showers for southern counties of England, parts of Wales

01:42as well as the north-west but in between there will be some sunshine, there will be some

01:47decent drier interludes by the early part of the afternoon for many and just the odd

01:52shower in places at this stage. So things cheering up a little during the afternoon

01:59and temperatures up at 11 or 12 Celsius, so close to the average for the time of year.

02:05However, it stays very windy with further outbreaks of rain for Shetland and Orkney

02:09and in the south-west the next weather system moves in with some intense rain associated

02:15with this as well as coastal gales for parts of south-west Wales, south-west England and

02:20then running along the English Channel. The rain across Wales at central and south-eastern

02:26parts of England, heavy at times, could cause some issues for Kent, parts of Sussex where

02:31we've seen some very wet weather recently. Further north, clearing skies on Wednesday

02:36evening, northern England, Scotland and Northern Ireland but it stays very, very windy indeed

02:41for parts of Shetland and Orkney, gusts of 60 mph plus with that strong wind. So it's

02:48going to stay very changeable over the next few days, further rain or showers and strong

02:53winds at times.
