00:00We've been talking about it for a while and now the warmer weather is here but

00:03it's not going to last very long and certainly first thing on Wednesday

00:07morning it won't feel all that warm. Quite cool conditions across northern

00:10Britain, temperatures well down into single figures. Not quite so chilly

00:14across the south. Here we keep a fair bit of cloud around, some outbreaks of rain

00:18during Tuesday evening. That will steadily start to push away, one or two

00:22heavy bursts possible for a time. But as I said fizzling out, staying very windy

00:26across the northeast with gales at times across Shetland, blowing in plenty

00:31of showers through the night here. But for most we'll see lighter winds, clear

00:35skies and a fine and sunny start to Wednesday. Now it's not going to be sunny

00:39everywhere, quite a lot of cloud pushing in quickly across Northern Ireland and

00:42West Wales. So quite a grey day here, might even be a little bit of drizzle

00:46here and there for West Wales, Northern Ireland and later on into maybe

00:50southwest Scotland. Bit murky around the coast in the southwest as well but for

00:54many central and eastern parts yes some cloud will develop through the day but

00:58we should see some bright weather, some hazy sunshine lifting the temperatures

01:03after that chilly start back up to average or maybe even slightly above

01:08temperatures. We haven't seen too often recently, widely into the 20s across

01:12England and Wales and 20 or 21 across parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland.

01:17Still a bit colder across the Northern Isles but even here the breeze will

01:21continue to ease through Wednesday. Most will have a fine Wednesday evening, we'll

01:26continue to see this thicker cloud just drift its way up the west coast of

01:30Scotland so some light rain and drizzle is possible here otherwise most places

01:35dry as we head into Thursday and with the warmer air in place it will be a

01:39much milder start Thursday morning compared to Wednesday morning with

01:43temperatures in some towns and cities staying in the mid-teens. So a warmer

01:48feel throughout the day on Thursday quite a bit of cloud around it's not

01:52blue skies everywhere far from it might see one or two showers particularly over the

01:56hills of southwest Scotland maybe a little bit of drizzle at times one or

02:00two showers possibly developing elsewhere but for most places it's dry

02:04quite a bit of sunshine and offer across the southern half of the UK and also for

02:08northern Scotland and where it's sunny temperatures will get into the mid 20s

02:1326, 27, even 28 is possible the Murray Coast may get to 26 as well so

02:20temperatures significantly higher than they have been you will notice that

02:24warmer feel. If you're not a fan of the warmth well there is some good news on

02:28the way because the cloud is thickening down to the southwest and later on we

02:32may well see some showers pushing in here it's part of this cold front ahead

02:36of it high pressure and that warmer air moving in over the next couple of days

02:40but here comes the cold front and just watch as it pushes away that warmth as

02:45we go through Friday and by the weekend we're back to low pressure sitting to

02:49the northwest temperatures back much closer to average with a mixture of

02:53sunshine and showers. For more on that make sure you subscribe to our YouTube
