00:00Hi there. A much cloudier day for many, but not entirely cloudy. There will be some brighter
00:06weather, albeit with a few showers and an increasing breeze as this area of low pressure
00:11develops and heads close to the southwest. Essentially, there are two areas of weather
00:17marked out by this low pressure. There's the cloudy and occasionally rainy zone marked
00:23out by these fronts and within the fronts. Whilst as this low pressure approaches, we've
00:28got cloud breaks, some sunshine, but also increasingly blustery winds and heavy showers
00:35coming alongside it. So, yeah, it's a cloudy start for most. In fact, that cloud's low,
00:42so misty, murky in places, particularly central and southern England, parts of Wales. And
00:47then we've got, because of the cold front, an area of rain moving through central southern
00:51England, Wales, Northern Ireland, and that's going to weaken as it moves north-eastwards,
00:56but could spark the odd heavy shower in the south-east by the afternoon. Meanwhile, the
01:00brighter skies I mentioned are pushing into south Wales and south-west England by late
01:06afternoon, albeit with an increasing wind, particularly for parts of Cornwall, and further
01:12scattered showers. Further north, there will be some cloud breaks, particularly for south-west
01:18Scotland, north-west England, but a lot of cloud is expected. And again, that cloud's
01:22going to be fairly low. A mild day, but not as mild as Thursday, so temperatures typically
01:28in the mid-teens. Then into the evening, the broken cloud area and the blustery showers
01:35moves north, although the showers largely confine to coastal parts of the south-west.
01:41Increasingly clear skies across much of England and Wales, and as the winds ease later on,
01:46some mist and fog patches will form. But it stays mostly cloudy for Scotland and Northern
01:50Ireland, with outbreaks of more persistent rain in the far north-west. Mild here as we
01:55begin the weekend, colder further south, certainly a fresher start compared with Friday morning,
02:00and we've got those mist and fog patches first thing. They won't last long. Another area
02:04of cloud heads into parts of eastern England, perhaps with some patchy rain associated with
02:09it, but more persistent and at times heavier rain with gusty winds moves into north-west
02:13Scotland and Northern Ireland by the end of the day, with some showers ahead of that.
02:17So a mixed start to the weekend, and Sunday's looking similar. A lot of fine weather at
02:21first, increasingly wet and windy towards the far north-west. Bye bye.
