00:00Hello there, welcome to your weather update from the Met Office. Now we've had a boisterous

00:05day today, that's Wednesday, with strong winds, particularly in the north, delivering lots

00:09of showers. The winds are down a notch through Thursday, even so. Low pressure sits to the

00:14north of the UK, bringing with it some cooler air extending across the country. These blues

00:19representing those lower temperatures. Towards the west, sitting across the Atlantic, high

00:24pressure, and the air is warmer here, and slowly we'll get some influence from that

00:29cell of high pressure through the weekend. But before that, this low remains in place,

00:35and hence the reason why, through Wednesday evening, if you're travelling, you could run

00:39into a shower out and about. It's going to be rather blustery, particularly across Scotland

00:43and Northern Ireland. Some showers run in across Wales, Northern England, towards the

00:47Midlands through into the early hours of the morning. More cloud here as well, but under

00:51clearer skies across the central portion of Northern Ireland, central and eastern areas

00:55of Scotland, North East England. Here there's a chance of a grass frost, particularly in

01:00the countryside. So showers from the word go as we head into Thursday morning. A chilly

01:04starts across the north as well as the west of the country. Further south, temperatures

01:08up a notch, even so. A bit of a cool morning, and we'll see a bit more cloud through Thursday

01:14morning here with those showers. Showers will develop elsewhere through the day. They'll

01:18be fairly scattered with some sunshine coming through, but frequent bursts across Orkney,

01:24much of Scotland, particularly the north as well as the west, and some heavier pulses

01:27coming in across Northern Ireland. But through the afternoon, these showers across England

01:31and Wales will tend to fade away. We'll see more on the way of sunshine. A pleasant evening

01:35to come here, and the winds across Scotland won't be as strong as Wednesday, even so.

01:42Temperatures 13 or 14. We could just come into the mid-teens across the Midlands as

01:47well as Wales. 19 for the southeast. Now on Friday, this feature here will bring some

01:51showery bursts of rain. Stronger winds for a time across Scotland. And then on Saturday,

01:56further showers are likely, particularly across the north. But notice a slight ridge trying

02:01to edge in from the west through Saturday and into Sunday, even so. Showers never too

02:06far away across the north, and on Sunday there will be a few just lurking around. Temperatures

02:12attempting to recover by a degree or so. So, through Thursday evening, we can see where

02:17these showers are. They will continue across the northern part of the UK. And then this

02:21feature here, you saw it on the synoptic map, this will bring cloud, outbreaks of rain,

02:26which could turn heavy for a time, and also some stronger winds. But it's a narrow band

02:30of rain which will slide down Scotland, clipping Northern Ireland towards the far north of

02:34England through the morning. Brighter skies across England and Wales to start the day.

02:38More clouds through the afternoon, perhaps one or two showers. Some showery bursts across

02:41northern counties of England, and a few showers likely across Scotland as well as Northern

02:45Ireland, frequent across the far north and west. And here's your outlook through into

02:49the weekend. Wherever you are, take care, grab some sunshine whilst you can, and I'll

02:53see you again soon.
