00:00Hello there, very good morning to you. A new week often gives you the chance to start afresh.

00:05Unfortunately, the weather hasn't quite caught the memo. Still stuck in the same pattern,

00:09I'm afraid. More areas of low pressure heading towards us over the next few days. Maybe brief

00:13ridges of high pressure to settle things down, but not before another area of low arrives.

00:17Why? Well, the jet stream is still stuck in the very same position it has been pretty

00:21much for the whole of summer so far. It's moving directly towards the UK and helping

00:26to push those areas of low pressure towards us as well, bringing that changeable and unsettled

00:31theme for yet another week. If we rewind back to the start of Monday morning, then our first

00:37area of low pressure is moving its way into the southwest and is already bringing some

00:41outbreaks of rain to areas of southwest England. These will be very quickly turning quite heavy,

00:46potentially some torrential downpours of rain and thunderstorms also possible. And so there

00:51is a yellow rain warning in force for southwest England and Wales. Do take care because some

00:56localised flooding and travel disruption is certainly possible. Some of that rain just

01:00moving into the southeast of England as well will feel quite humid here under all of there.

01:04But generally the northern half of the UK generally staying dry. A few showers to watch

01:08out for, but with some bright and sunny spells around. Temperatures responding in that brightness

01:12around 20 to 22 degrees Celsius here. So certainly for parts of northern England and eastern

01:17Scotland where it has been so cloudy over the weekend, today is going to feel like a

01:20much better day here. That rain will continue its progression northwards as we head throughout

01:25this evening and overnight. Again, some heavy thundery pulses possible for southeast England.

01:30It will eventually stall a bit across parts of north Wales into the Midlands over towards

01:34the Humber and Yorkshire area during the second half of the night. Dryer for Scotland and

01:39Northern Ireland, still a fair amount of cloud around, maybe an isolated shower in the mixture.

01:43But underneath all that cloud for many of us, it is going to be a very mild night. Temperatures

01:47not dropping much lower than 13 or 15 degrees Celsius. We'll be picking up a bit of a breeze

01:53around southern areas of England during Tuesday, and particularly as the area of low pressure

01:58swirls its way around towards the North Sea will turn quite gusty along some coastlines.

02:02For your morning rush hour on Tuesday, then it's going to be north Wales into that Midlands

02:06Humber area that sees the heaviest of pulses before the rain eventually clears. Behind

02:10that is a mixture of sunshine and showers. Some of those showers again on the heavy side,

02:14potentially quite sharp and thundery for eastern counties of England up towards eastern

02:18Scotland as well. Temperatures on Tuesday ranging between 19 and 23 degrees Celsius.

02:24So again, if you do catch one of those sunnier spells, it will feel quite pleasant and warm

02:28if you are outside. There's plenty more updates on what we can see for the full week ahead

02:34during our week ahead forecast that will be uploaded to YouTube later on today. So make

02:39sure you're subscribing for that and we'll see you again here very soon. Bye bye.
