00:00Hello there. Welcome to your weather update this Wednesday morning. And today, we have

00:07lost the rain in the south. We've gained a lot of showers across the north as well as

00:10the west. And things are fairly cool outside, rather chilly, for the start of June. Across

00:16the far north there, you can see low pressure influencing our weather, dragging in some

00:21cold air from the northwest. Winds will always be strong across Scotland, driving down towards

00:27Northern Ireland, northwest England, but a hint of something a bit more settled towards

00:31the south. And here, we'll see fewer showers through the day and more in the way of sunshine.

00:37So if you are stepping out first thing this morning, you can see there are a lot of showers

00:40across Scotland. Brighter skies across Aberdeenshire towards borders, as well as Northumberland,

00:46also Yorkshire. But further west, some showers moving in across Irish seacoast, far north

00:51of Northern Ireland, and a few across northern and western parts of Wales. Inland, it's

00:56a chilly morning, even with a touch of grass frost as we start the day. However, that won't

01:02last as some will get to work and we'll see temperatures rise. But not rising as high

01:07as they should do for this time of year. Things remain relatively cool, particularly with

01:11this northwest wind, which will continue to deliver those showers through the day. And

01:17they will develop in situ elsewhere, but fairly scattered. Where you see some heavy pulses,

01:22you're likely to see also some soft hail, even the odd rumble of thunder. And across

01:27the tops of the mountains across the far north of Scotland, even some wintryness here. Elsewhere,

01:32these showers will continue through the afternoon, but some brighter skies across central and

01:37southern parts of England and Wales, where temperatures will reach around 16 to 18 Celsius.

01:42But look at this, 11, 12, 13, 14 for Scotland, as well as Northern Ireland, northern counts

01:47of England, the far north of Wales. Now, through this evening and overnight, these showers

01:52continue across the northern half of the UK. A few across eastern counties will fade

01:57away yet again, but we could see one or two just running in across Wales, where we'll

02:01see a bit more in the way of clouds. The wind will also be a feature of the weather into

02:06Thursday morning across the western side of Scotland, running in across the North Channel

02:10as well as Northern Ireland. And temperatures yet again just holding around single figures,

02:15slightly higher across the far south of England. Even so, a cool start to the day. So low pressure

02:22continues to affect us through Thursday as well as Friday. High pressure towards the

02:26west across the Atlantic will exert a slight influence from time to time across southern

02:31and southwestern parts of England and Wales. However, through Thursday, you can see where

02:35the showers are, a stronger wind here, and these showers yet again could have a thundery

02:40mix to them. They'll develop elsewhere, particularly across the north as well as the west of the

02:45country, further south and east, some clearer skies, some sunshine, and even temperatures

02:49up to 19 Celsius. So, relatively cool for this time of year as we enter the next few

02:54days. Fresh winds in the north, showers will always be heaviest in the north as well as

02:58the northwest, but attempting to be drier, brighter, and also warmer further south and

03:03southwest. See you later.
