00:00Hi there, Thursday has been a day of contrasts, some decent blue skies in the east whilst
00:06cloud has been steadily increasing in the west, albeit slowly ahead of this slow moving
00:12weather front and that's the feature that will increasingly bring wet weather to Northern
00:16Ireland, Wales and the south west during the evening and overnight.
00:20It has been damp for the north west of Scotland but with drier weather elsewhere it will be
00:26a notable change into the evening as showery rain moves into the south west as well as
00:31Wales, some longer spells of heavy rain at times here and that wetter weather moves into
00:36Northern Ireland by midnight.
00:38Some bits and pieces of rain across other western parts of the country and increasingly
00:42cloudy, increasingly gloomy in many places as the cloud lowers but that means it's going
00:47to be a mild start to Friday, 11-13 Celsius generally.
00:52Now we start off with those grey skies fairly widely across the country, a contrast for
00:56eastern parts compared with Thursday morning but still some cloud breaks here and there
01:00particularly to the north east of higher ground and some breaks developing elsewhere especially
01:05south Wales and the south west as the slow moving weather front straddles central parts
01:10of the country bringing further rain.
01:12Some heavy showers developing especially in the south east and then later some blustery
01:16showers for the south west and south Wales as the wind picks up, that will make it feel
01:20a little cooler compared with Thursday but still temperatures into the teens in most
01:25places.
01:26The clear slot of weather moves northwards as this weakening weather front pushes into
01:32Northern England and then Scotland overnight.
01:35That's going to bring a lot of cloud for Northern Scotland by the end of the night and further
01:39persistent rain for the outer Hebrides but elsewhere clear spells here and there and
01:44some mist and fog patches first thing Saturday, certainly a cooler start or you might say
01:49a colder start for many with temperatures in the mid to high single figures but a bright
01:54start for Wales, Western England, I think we're likely to see some cloud once again
01:59returning to East Anglia in the south east, perhaps some rain for a time during Saturday
02:03but the wettest weather will be for North West Scotland moving into Northern Ireland
02:08during the afternoon making it feel a little less than pleasant.
02:12Then more unsettled weather for North West Scotland on Sunday whilst much of the rest
02:17of the country mostly stays fine until after dark.
02:22We'll have all the latest on our YouTube channel.
02:23Bye bye.
