00:00Things will be turning fresher next week but a pretty warm and humid weekend to

00:04come. Before we get there we're going to get through Friday which is bringing

00:08quite a lot of cloud across Scotland and Northern Ireland. This is the view from

00:11space you can see on the radar quite a bit of rain earlier too and further

00:16outbreaks of rain will just edge across into Scotland, parts of North Wales and

00:20at times Northwest England. But much of Eastern England, much of the South

00:24staying dry and fine. Quite a lot of high cloud around so the sunshine is fairly

00:29hazy but still feeling pretty warm and humid in that hazy sunshine. Across the

00:34southeast 27, 28 perhaps even 29 Celsius. It isn't as warm further north because

00:40we've got the cloud, the brisk breeze and the outbreaks of rain. Now the rain could

00:44turn heavier through this afternoon particularly late afternoon to the

00:47evening through parts of Northern Ireland. Could be some thunderstorms here and

00:51that is then going to move its way across parts of Scotland, particularly

00:54the southwest. So turning into quite a wet evening across much of Scotland. The

00:58rain at times across the west coast of Wales, maybe the hills of Northwest

01:02England but a good chunk of England and Wales will stay dry through the night.

01:06Wherever you are though it is going to be really quite warm and humid.

01:10Temperatures not dropping below the mid-teens in most locations. So a pretty

01:16warm humid start to Saturday and it's going to be a fairly sticky day. For most

01:20it will be dry but there will still be a few outbreaks of rain here and there

01:24especially in the morning on the west coast of Scotland. A few showers

01:28possible over Wales and Northwest England but I suspect most places will

01:32be dry. Quite a bit of cloud around particularly in the morning but as the

01:36day goes on that cloud tending to break up a little bit more. So we'll see more

01:39sunshine coming through particularly across southern England, Wales and

01:43Northern Ireland. Always the risk of outbreaks of rain continuing in the

01:46northwest. A bit breezy here as well but elsewhere the winds fairly light. Quite a

01:51warm and humid feel however with temperatures quite widely in the mid

01:5620s and across the south again getting into the high 20s in places. So yes

02:01pretty warm, pretty sticky and again a fairly humid evening on Saturday evening

02:06but again for the vast majority it'll be dry. Plenty of hazy sunshine continuing

02:11as we head through the evening period. But notice behind me some angry looking

02:16clouds and some heavy rain and that is a weather front that's going to mix things

02:19up a little bit during Sunday. It is going to eventually bring some cooler

02:24air because it is a cold front but as it moves in it's going to bring some heavy

02:28downpours of rain perhaps some thunderstorms in places on Sunday as

02:31well. Ahead of that it is still going to be pretty hot and sticky but as that cold

02:37front moves through but it won't get to the east until Sunday night Monday it

02:41will be introducing fresher, cooler, less humid air as we go into next week. So

02:47plenty going on with the weather make sure you stay up to date with the very

02:50latest. Best way to do that if you're watching this on YouTube is to hit
