00:00Hey again, we are going to have some fine weather for many places as we go through the
00:04end of this week and through much of this weekend. But before that, we do have a front
00:09across the UK and this is bringing quite a bit of cloud and a bit of rain across much
00:14of England and Wales as we go through the rest of this evening and overnight. That front
00:18is shifting its way towards the southeast though, so clearer skies following in behind.
00:23But do watch out, there could be some heavier bursts of rain across parts of the southeast
00:27through the early hours of Friday morning. Behind it, like I said, some clearer skies
00:31and a few showers for western parts of Scotland. But under the clearer skies, it is going to
00:36turn a little bit fresher for some of us than it has done recently, away from the towns
00:40and cities, temperatures dropping into mid-single figures. Markedly milder than this, warmer
00:45than this towards the southeast where we have that cloud, that front lingering. So it is
00:49going to be a bit of a grey and at times damp start across the far southeast first thing
00:54tomorrow, but that front quickly clearing away towards the southeast. And then for much
00:59of England and Wales, a lot of fine sunny weather around, perhaps a little bit more
01:03cloud towards the north. Across Northern Ireland, a bit more cloud here, some bright sunny spells
01:09and similar across Scotland, but here we will also have quite a few showers, especially
01:13towards the northwest. Some of the showers could be a little bit on the punchy side and
01:18there will be some blustery winds here and those blustery winds will add to the relatively
01:22cool feel to things. Temperatures in the north for some struggling to just the mid-teens
01:27Celsius. Significantly warmer than this further south towards the southeast. We're looking
01:31at highs of around 24, 25 Celsius, so not as warm as it has been, but nonetheless with
01:36lighter winds here and a decent amount of sunshine, it will feel warm. Through the end
01:41of the day, we are going to have more showers across parts of Scotland and overnight we
01:45could see a few showers across parts of Northern Ireland, maybe a few for Northern England
01:49and Western Wales, but on the whole across much of England and Wales it is going to stay
01:53dry with some clear skies around and so again where we see the skies clear, temperatures
01:58are going to take a bit of a dip and so once more rural spots dropping into mid-single
02:03figures in some places, most built up areas just about holding up in double digits. Through
02:09Saturday itself and like I said, the weekend's actually looking largely fine. Yes, there
02:13will be some showers coming in from the west on that westerly flow and so they're most
02:18likely in western areas. In fact, towards the east you'd be pretty unlucky to catch
02:23a shower and on the whole there looks like there'll be a lot of dry and particularly
02:28around parts of East Anglia, South East England, lots of sunny weather here. Elsewhere a bit
02:32more cloud building and spreading out as we go through the day, but there should still
02:35be some bright sunny spells and for most the winds not particularly strong, though still
02:39quite blustery towards the north of the UK. Temperatures look relatively similar to Friday
02:44really for some, maybe a degree or so down, but still in the sunshine feeling warm enough.
02:50As we go into Sunday and there will still be some more showers across northern parts
02:54of the UK on Sunday with some blustery winds. Notice the tightly packed isobars here. Elsewhere
03:00largely fine as we go into the start of Monday before a system comes in from the southwest
03:05and so most of us are going to see some fairly wet weather for a time as we go into the beginning
03:10of next week. For more information about what we can expect, make sure you subscribe to
