00:00Hello there and a very good morning to you on this Wednesday morning. It's a mix

00:04of sunshine and showers today, some of these could turn out to be heavy. This

00:09morning brighter skies but a chilly start across northern, western and

00:13central parts of Scotland, even further south, but notice showers either side and

00:17more clouds across eastern Scotland. Now for Northern Ireland a rash of showers

00:21through this morning extending across the North Channel to Irish Sea coast.

00:25Across England and Wales it's a mix of cloud and sunshine to start the day and

00:29a few showers lurking out there. So through this morning no one immune to

00:33those showers but they will be fairly scattered as we head through the day,

00:36although we can't rule out some heavy downpours through the morning into the

00:40afternoon. So let's pick up on this breeze coming in across Northern Ireland

00:44making things rather cool, a keen wind here, elsewhere in land a lighter breeze,

00:49sunshine always across the north and the west, bright skies here, showery bursts

00:53of rain develop though across the southeast of Scotland and we'll see

00:57showers developing in situ across southern Scotland, northern England, Wales

01:00as well as the West Country. Further southeast yes you'll see your fair share

01:04of scattered showers as well and some of these could actually turn out to be

01:07heavy and they will be slow-moving. Dry skies across central and northern areas

01:12of Scotland through the day, brightest weather across western Scotland and

01:16through the day we'll find that those showers will tend to ease across Northern

01:19Ireland but they will persist across central and southern parts of Scotland.

01:23Here are your temperatures, well with a northerly component to the wind holding

01:27around 15 or 16 across Scotland and Northern Ireland, further south Wales 17

01:31or 18, further southeast 21. So through Wednesday evening and overnight we'll

01:36find these showers will pep up and turn thundery across central and southern

01:40parts of England and Wales. There's a yellow warning for rain across the

01:43southeast of Scotland and East Anglia, we could see some really quite heavy

01:47downpours here into the early hours of Thursday morning. Notice along this east

01:51side more cloud as we head through the day and what that means we'll see some

01:56dull skies here but brighter weather further west. So what's happening is that

02:00these weather fronts will tend to become confined to more southern areas and then

02:04high pressure extends across northern and western parts making the weather

02:08rather settled here and it will turn warmer. The risk of thundery showers

02:12through Thursday across more southern parts and then with an onshore breeze

02:15along the eastern side that's where we will see more in the way of cloud but it

02:18is warming up. So on Thursday temperatures certainly up a notch on

02:22Wednesday, still some heavy showers in the mix across more southern areas

02:25through the afternoon and a mix of cloud across the rest of England and

02:28Wales with some sunshine. Brightest skies will be the northwest yet again and a

02:32fine day to come across many areas on Friday. It's feeling warm as well

02:37temperatures into the 20s even for western Scotland you'll see some fine

02:41weather with some sunshine. See you later.
