00:00Hello, there. Welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office. For most of us,

00:04this Bank Holiday Monday really is going to be a day of sunshine and scattered showers.

00:08But actually, down towards central and eastern parts of England this morning, it should be

00:13a largely fine start to the day. Elsewhere, showers from the world go, and for many of

00:17us, come the afternoon, it will be a mix of sunshine and showers. The showers may merge

00:22into a longer spell of rain at times across parts of Scotland. And for eastern and northeastern

00:26Scotland, actually, here is the greatest risk of seeing some heavy and thundery downpours.

00:31A warning is in force from the Met Office throughout the day here. So, do keep up to

00:35date with the latest warnings on our website. For most of us, it's going to be a slightly

00:40cooler feeling day compared to the weekend. Highs at best reaching around 17 or 18 degrees.

00:48Into the evening, a lot of the showers across England and Wales fading away. Showers also

00:53starting to slowly ease across parts of Scotland. Elsewhere, the showers giving way to a more

00:58persistent band of rain in the west. And some of this rain, come the end of the night, will

01:03be heavy in places. Where the further east you are, probably turning dry and clear. So,

01:08under the clear skies, temperatures just falling into single figures. Where further west you

01:12are, a fairly mild night to come, with lows falling not much lower than 10 to 12 degrees.

01:19So we do start Tuesday off with some sunshine in the east. Where further west, this area

01:25of rain will just gradually spread its way eastward soon, the course of the day. Hanging

01:29on to the driest and brightest weather for the longest, up across the far north east

01:33of Scotland. And then, come the afternoon, it's going to be a little bit brighter coming

01:36through for Northern Ireland and Wales. But a rest of the showers also following the main

01:41rain band. For most temperatures, around average for the time of year. But if you're stuck

01:47under the rain, factor in the breeze, I think it's going to feel fairly disappointing for

01:51this point in May. And then a quick look at the rest of the half-term week. It's unfortunately

01:57remaining fairly changeable for most of the UK. Further spells of rain and showers. And

02:02again, the showers will be heavy and thundery in places. But there are hints high pressure

02:06will start to build in from the west as we head towards the end of the week and into

02:10the weekend. So it's going to be a little bit drier and brighter developing, especially

02:13across more western parts of the UK. But you can find out more about the weather where

02:18you are in the next few days on our website or our app. But for me, for now, take care

02:23and I'll see you again soon.
