00:00Morning, welcome to your weekend weather update.
00:03If you've not been outside yet, maybe in for a bit of a shock.
00:06It looks lovely and sunny for many,
00:08but it is on the chilly side.
00:10Temperatures below average for the end of September.
00:12But it is fine and bright for the vast majority
00:15across England and Wales.
00:16Steadily clouding over, though, across much of Scotland.
00:19And there is some rain in the west.
00:20Bit of showery rain getting to eastern Scotland,
00:22but I suspect much of eastern Scotland
00:24will brighten up through the day.
00:25A few scattered showers for Northern Ireland,
00:27mostly in the north.
00:28Here, too, some sunny spirals coming through.
00:31The odd shower may get into northwest England, maybe
00:33north Wales.
00:34But for most of England and Wales, it's dry and it's fine.
00:37Certainly over much of the Midlands, East Anglia,
00:39and the southeast, it'll stay fine and sunny.
00:42So good news after the torrential rain here
00:46and the flooding earlier in the week.
00:48It is on the cold side, though.
00:49Temperatures well down into single figures to start the day
00:52and just about getting into the teens.
00:54We might squeak a 15 across the southeast.
00:56Generally speaking, they're 13 or 14 Celsius.
00:59And temperatures are quite a few degrees
01:01below the September average.
01:04Going to turn pretty chilly quickly this evening, as well,
01:07under the largely clear skies.
01:08Still one or two showers filtering
01:10into northwest England, western and northern Scotland.
01:13In fact, quite a damp night across Orkney and parts
01:16of Caithness and Sutherland.
01:17But for many, it'll be a dry evening and dry nights.
01:21And again, turn a little bit chilly,
01:23with most places having fairly light winds.
01:25Perhaps not quite as cold as last night,
01:27but still in parts of eastern England
01:29will be well down to three or four degrees
01:32and lower in rural spots.
01:34A milder night further south and west,
01:36however, and that is because weather patterns are changing.
01:39We're losing the northerly winds by tomorrow
01:41and starting to get southerly winds.
01:43Strengthening southerly winds.
01:46Getting quite lively, in fact, across southwest England
01:49and south and west Wales.
01:50Along the coast, we could easily get gusts of 50 to 55 miles
01:54an hour, maybe 60 miles an hour.
01:56So we do have a Met Office yellow warning
01:58in place for the winds here.
02:00Could cause some disruption.
02:02And it's also going to turn wet across southwest England,
02:05most of Wales, parts of the Midlands.
02:07By the end of the afternoon, northwest England,
02:09northern Ireland are also seeing some outbreaks of rain.
02:12For most of the day, though, eastern England and much
02:15of Scotland will be dry and fine during tomorrow.
02:18But after a sunny start, the cloud
02:20will steadily increase and the breeze strengthening as well.
02:23Temperatures are going to struggle as well.
02:25Again, at chilly start, lifting to 13 or 14 by the afternoon.
02:29Maybe 15 or 16 in the southwest.
02:31But obviously, not feeling too clever here
02:33with the wind and the rain.
02:35And that rain will become more extensive
02:38as we go through the day and into the evening.
02:40Some further heavier bursts of rain likely.
02:42And of course, any extra rain falling
02:44where we've had the flooding this week
02:46is likely to exacerbate the issue.
02:48So that's not good news as that rain
02:50sets in again over much of the Midlands
02:52and spreads into northern England,
02:54eventually into southern Scotland
02:55during Sunday evening, staying pretty wet and windy
02:57in the southwest.
02:58So a wet and windy spell to come,
03:00especially on Sunday night.
