00:00Good morning. A much fresher feel is on the way for Sunday but before then we've

00:04got a spell of wet weather to push through the country and some very humid

00:08air still across eastern areas. There will be some early sunshine through much of

00:12this morning but the sunshine will turn hazier as we head towards lunchtime and

00:16into this afternoon. However it should stay dry across many eastern areas.

00:21Different story further west as outbreaks of potentially quite heavy

00:24rain will push in from western areas potentially bringing some localised

00:28flooding to parts of Wales and the southwest as well as potentially some

00:33areas of northwestern England too. And here it will be much fresher, temperatures

00:37much closer to average for the time of year down to around 15 to 18 degrees.

00:42However where we've still got that humid air across parts of East Anglia

00:45temperatures will still be in the high 20s so it could still be a fairly

00:49uncomfortable day for some areas here if you're not enjoying the heat. The cooler

00:54air will arrive across the rest of the country though overnight as this band of

00:57rain pushes eastwards bringing some spells of further heavy rain. We could

01:01also see some thunderstorms from the near continent push into southeastern

01:05areas as well so do keep an eye on the forecast if you're around here. However

01:09it will turn much drier and clearer from the north and west once this band of

01:13rain does clear through and as I said it is going to be a much more comfortable

01:17night tonight. Temperatures down in single figures for some of us but widely

01:21in the lower teens for most of us. And Sunday is actually looking like a fairly

01:26fine day there will be still quite a lot of dry weather around some sunshine too

01:29potentially still quite cloudy across eastern areas to start the day but the

01:33sunshine should spread into these areas as we head towards the afternoon. Now

01:38there is a risk of some showers breaking out across northwestern areas but as I

01:41said most of us should stay relatively dry and temperatures in the high teens

01:46low 20s much closer to average for the time of year and much more comfortable

01:50as well. Looking ahead to next week well it does look like low-pressure systems

01:55will continue to push westwards through the country potentially bringing a spell

01:59of wet weather into Monday. A ridge of high pressure following behind for

02:03Tuesday but then further wet weather later on in the week so fairly changeable

02:07but you can find more details on that on our YouTube channel. See you later.
