00:00Hello, welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office. Low pressure still very

00:04much in charge of our weather through Sunday evening and into Monday, with Storm Fergus

00:08moving its way across the UK overnight on Sunday. A brief ridge of high pressure through

00:13Monday before the next system then arrives from the west into Tuesday afternoon. We then

00:18see a very brief ridge of high pressure developing through the middle part of the week, perhaps

00:22bringing something a little bit more settled across much of the UK through Wednesday and

00:26Thursday. Back to Sunday evening though, and that storm, Storm Fergus, slowly pushes

00:32its way eastwards across the UK overnight Sunday and into Monday morning, bringing some

00:36particularly heavy rain to northern parts of England. There will also be some very strong

00:40winds across west Wales and through the Bristol Channel we could see gusts up to 60mph here,

00:45but elsewhere it will be turning a little bit drier through the early hours of Monday

00:49morning. Temperatures across the southern half of the UK generally holding up around

00:53seven or eight degrees, but across parts of Scotland a much colder night, perhaps as

00:57low as minus one or minus two. This could lead to some icy conditions, particularly

01:03across southwestern parts of Scotland through Monday morning, but elsewhere it will be a

01:06much drier and brighter day compared to what we've seen recently. Plenty of sunshine as

01:11we head through the afternoon, but a few showers across central and northern parts of England

01:15and along eastern coasts of Scotland as well. Elsewhere though, a dry afternoon and plenty

01:19of sunshine and with some lighter winds compared to what we've seen recently, it will be feeling

01:23pleasant in that sunshine, particularly across the south. Temperatures here around ten to

01:27twelve degrees and temperatures generally around average across the north. That drier

01:33weather doesn't last long though, as through Monday evening we see this next area of low

01:37pressure moving towards the UK. This will bring some heavy rain and some showers, particularly

01:42across Northern Ireland and Wales and then into parts of Northern England through Monday

01:46night and into Tuesday. There will be some breaks in those showers, particularly across

01:50the southwest, but feeling very blustery here and those blustery winds perhaps keeping temperatures

01:54in the double figures across the very far southwest. Elsewhere, temperatures generally

01:58the low to mid single figures, so a bit of a chilly night. A very cloudy start though

02:04across much of the UK on Tuesday. That rain continues to push its way north and eastwards

02:09into parts of eastern Scotland, where it will turn particularly heavy through the day on

02:12Tuesday. We could see some localised flooding here as that ground is very saturated from

02:17the rain we've already seen, but further south there will be some breaks between the showers,

02:21however those showers likely to be quite heavy at times. With some blustery winds as well,

02:26it will be feeling colder compared to Monday. Temperatures are similar again around ten

02:30to twelve degrees and further north generally around average for the time of year. That

02:35wet weather continues as we head through Tuesday and into Wednesday, but those hints of something

02:40more settled through Thursday and Friday. You can find out more about that though by
