00:00Hello, welcome to your National Evening weather update from the Met Office. Many places saw

00:05plenty of sunny spells today, but also some heavy showers. These have been focused across

00:10Wales and the south west of England. They're going to be easing as we go through this evening

00:14and overnight. Elsewhere, a dry night to come, plenty of clear spells, especially further

00:20towards the west. But once again, we'll see low cloud returning across north eastern parts

00:26of Scotland and across north eastern England, and also coming in to south eastern England

00:31and east Anglia. So a murky night to come here, but otherwise temperatures holding up

00:37at around 10 or 11 degrees, perhaps just a little bit chillier underneath rural spots

00:41further towards the west. We could see some mist and fog patches here as well. So to start

00:47Sunday morning, a lot of mist, murk, low cloud around, but that should gradually lift and

00:53break away, especially for parts of England in the southeast to reveal plenty of sunshine

01:00through much of Sunday. We will still see the odd showers, especially across the south

01:05of England and also across Dumfries and Galloway. But across Scotland, holding on to quite a

01:11lot of clouds here and especially across that northeast coast. Once again, we'll hold on

01:16to that low cloud and fog. But many places are seeing a day of sunshine, warm sunshine

01:23that is, with highs of up to 24, possibly 25 degrees, but feeling cooler underneath

01:29the cloud in Scotland and especially that low cloud across eastern parts of the coastline.

01:36So then as we end Sunday evening, plenty of late sunshine on offer. But once again, we

01:42will see the return of low cloud coming in from the North Sea, pushing its way further

01:47inland as we go through the night, but drier further or clear spells further towards the

01:52West. And it could turn chilly here with temperatures dropping into the single figures,

01:57but otherwise assimilate with temperatures holding up at around 10 or 11 degrees. So

02:03to start Monday morning, a bit of a mix. We should see bright skies further towards the

02:08West, but a murky start further towards the East, with the low cloud gradually breaking

02:13up through the morning, pushing its way back to the coastline to leave plenty of sunshine.

02:19Once again, we will still see a few showers breaking out, but many places should remain

02:24dry and some of the showers could perhaps be on the heavy side across Northern Ireland.

02:29But otherwise, a lot of sunshine on offer through Monday, with highs up to possibly

02:3320, 22 degrees, but a little bit cooler, especially down this eastern coast. As we look further

02:41ahead into the new week, then a bit of a mixed picture with showers and outbreaks of rain

02:48coming into eastern and western parts, so turning a bit more unsettled into the latter

02:53half of next week. But for more details on that, be sure to hit subscribe on YouTube
