00:00Hello, there. Welcome to your evening broadcast from the Met Office. We'll see heavy rain

00:05across Scotland over the next 24 hours, some local disruption possible. An area of low

00:10pressure sits to the northwest, driving in weather systems from the Atlantic, some warm

00:14and humid air associated with this as well, eventually turning more showery and fresher

00:19as we move through Tuesday. So, the details for Sunday evening. Outbreaks of heavy rain

00:25across Northern Ireland stretching into Scotland as we head into the early hours. The Met Office

00:29warning in force right through until the end of Monday. Some localised disruption

00:34possible, 50 to 75 millimetres over the higher ground by the end of the day. Overnight across

00:40England and Wales, generally dry. There will be some rain across western areas. The clearest

00:45skies further south and east. But a muggy night for all. Winds coming in from the south,

00:5015, 16 Celsius as a minimum for many of us. And so, that means a muggy, damp start to

00:56the day, particularly across the north. Outbreaks of heavy rain pushing across Scotland. Some

01:00localised flooding possible, particularly in the west. Northern Ireland also seeing

01:05rain which transfers into northern England and later northern parts of Wales as well.

01:10To the southeast of this weather front, it generally stays dry and bright for much of

01:15England and Wales. And some sunny spells. And in the best of these, quite a warm, humid

01:20day, 26, 27 Celsius possible. In the best of the sunshine, a little fresher. Behind

01:25the weather system, northern Ireland up into northwest Scotland, generally 17 to 22 Celsius

01:31here. Still breezy around the coasts. Through the evening time, still some heavy pulses

01:36of rain working across southern and eastern parts of Scotland, transferring into northern

01:40England, Wales, the west country as we head into the early hours, eventually making its

01:45way into parts of the Midlands and central southern England. With southeast England generally

01:50staying dry, clearer spells following behind as well. Under the clear spells, across the

01:55northwest, temperatures a little fresher, 12 or 13 Celsius. Still muggy across many

02:01southern and eastern areas, 16 or 17 Celsius to take us in to Tuesday morning. This weather

02:07front giving outbreaks of rain first thing across central parts of England, pushing its

02:11way slowly south and eastward, still affecting perhaps parts of Shetland for a time too before

02:17moving away here. The weather front does linger though across parts of east Anglia

02:20down into Kent, some heavier bursts possible into the afternoon, but for many brightening

02:25up, plenty of sunny spells, but showers across northern Ireland, western Scotland could be

02:30heavy at times. Fresher air moving in, so temperatures 18 to 22 Celsius for many, 23

02:36to 25 across the far east and south east where that muggy air continues to hold on a little

02:41longer. Through the rest of the week, it generally stays quite mixed, low pressure to the northwest

02:47of the UK, so we're likely to see further rain at times across the north and the west.

02:51Further south and east, generally drier and brighter and temperatures nearer to average

02:55for the time of year. If you'd like more information on this, you can find this on our social media

03:01channels and our YouTube as well. See you again soon.
