00:00Good morning. It is a bit of a chilly start out there for most of us but it

00:03will warm up as we head towards the weekend as our winds switch from a

00:08northerly to a south westerly and that will bring more in the way of widespread

00:12dry weather through today. So plenty of sunshine to come well into this

00:16afternoon particularly across parts of England and Wales. The cloud will thicken

00:20across parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland. There's a risk of the odd

00:23shower as well as we head into the afternoon. But with westerly winds and

00:28more in the way of sunshine temperatures will climb a little bit

00:30higher than they have done lately. Highs around 14 or 15 degrees quite widely.

00:34Still below average but definitely warmer than it has been lately. The winds

00:38will be lighter today as well so that will definitely make a difference as

00:42well. Bring a bit more warmth to that sunshine. But the winds will remain

00:46light overnight with clear skies developing across England and Wales. It

00:49will be another fairly cold night for many southern areas. Different story

00:53though across more northwestern areas as that weather front brings more

00:56widespread wet weather to western areas of Scotland in particular and quite

01:00thick cloud across Northern Ireland and more central areas of Scotland. So here

01:05it's going to be a milder night. The winds are really going to pick up as

01:07well. We could see gale-force winds across the far northwest of Scotland

01:11through the early hours of tomorrow morning. Across the south

01:15there's still a chance of a rural frost but I think slightly warmer than last

01:19night. And it will be a fairly bright start to the weekend across much of

01:23England and Wales. With high pressure dominating across southern areas it

01:26should be a fairly fine weekend across the south in fact. Plenty of sunshine to

01:31come through Saturday. We'll turn a little bit hazier across northern areas

01:34and parts of the far west as well into Saturday afternoon. And the wet weather

01:38is really going to persist actually across western areas of Scotland. We

01:41could start to see rainfall totals building up by the end of Saturday with

01:45strong winds persisting as well. But with plenty more sunshine across much of

01:50England and Wales temperatures quite widely climbing towards the high teens.

01:53It's much closer to where they should be for the time of year and definitely a

01:57more widely warm day to come tomorrow compared to today even. So with

02:01temperatures rising through the weekend and high pressure building there's

02:04plenty more fine weather to come across the south. But that wet weather across

02:07the more northern areas will sink into parts of North Wales and Northern

02:11England for Sunday. But it looks like next week we could see more prolonged

02:15dry weather. You can find out more details on all of that on our latest
