00:00Good morning, welcome to your national morning weather update from the Met Office.

00:04We've got a change in store with outbreaks of heavy rain across western

00:08parts, still rather dry in the east, but that high pressure that we've held on to

00:12is moving its way eastwards, allowing a low pressure to move in from the west,

00:17bringing longer spells of rain. But back to this morning, we'll see some showers

00:21affecting eastern parts of Scotland, they could still be on the heavy side, moving

00:25their way northwards, further towards the east, low cloud breaking up to give a

00:30good deal of sunshine. But this is this area of low pressure bringing heavy

00:35outbreaks of rain, especially across southwestern England, into Wales later

00:40and into Northern Ireland. And here we do have yellow Met Office rain

00:45warnings in force, so there could be some difficult driving conditions,

00:49some spray on the roads and some surface water flooding too. But in the sunshine

00:54it will still feel pleasantly warm, perhaps not as warm as what we saw over

00:58the weekend, maybe highs of 20 up to 24 degrees. But a different feeling day

01:04across western parts, underneath all this cloud and rain, temperatures

01:09struggling here at around 15 or 16 degrees, so a very different feel with

01:14some brisk winds as well coming up from the south. And into this evening, that

01:20cloud and rain is going to be moving its way slowly north and eastwards, so

01:24could give some difficult driving conditions across the Midlands and the

01:27southeast as well during rush hour, and again just slowly moving its way

01:32north-eastwards with showers coming in to the southwest, mixed with some clear

01:37spells in between. But there is a lot of cloud around and that means temperatures

01:42aren't going to be falling overnight with lows generally around 12 or

01:46even up to 14 degrees. So it's going to be a mild start for many of us on Tuesday, a

01:53bit of a reverse in where the wet weather is, so across Northern Ireland

01:57now and Northern England and even into eastern parts of England as it gradually

02:02pushes its way northwards to affect parts of Scotland, generally breaking up

02:05as it does so. Behind that though, there will be some drier conditions but there

02:10will also be some frequent showers coming in up from the south and west,

02:14and some of these still could be on the heavy side, perhaps with the odd rumble

02:18of thunder, but many places still seeing some sunny spells. And it is still going

02:23to be warm where you do see the sunny spells, obviously feeling a little bit

02:27cooler underneath the cloud and rain, but highs up to maybe 18 or 20 degrees. As we

02:33go through the rest of the week, it does look like a case of sunny spells and

02:37scattered showers, temperatures still feeling warm in the sunshine, but if you

02:45miss a forecast. I'll catch you soon, bye bye.
