00:00Hello. High pressure continues to dominate our weather but it's certainly not a sunny
00:05or entirely dry high pressure that we've got in place across the UK. The best of the sunshine
00:10remains across parts of Scotland but the gap in the cloud is becoming nibbled away from
00:18all sides and it's becoming smaller. So really it's central and northern parts of the mainland
00:24of Scotland through the central belt, perhaps parts of southern Scotland where we'll see
00:27the best of the sunshine away from any lingering fog patches and it's going to be chilly in
00:32this area after a frosty start. But Northern Ireland is seeing a cloudier day and the cloud
00:38sheet remains across much of England and Wales, albeit with some holes in it for parts of
00:42north and west Wales. North West England, for example, the thickest cloud will be in
00:46the south where there'll be some drizzly showers running along the Channel Coast and there'll
00:50be some drizzle for Shetland as well. So all in all, a grey day for most, some sunshine
00:57remains for parts of Scotland where we've got the cloud, 7 or 8 Celsius, where we've
01:01had the frosty start. Some places we'll see temperatures remaining sub-zero into the afternoon.
01:08And as I mentioned, that hole in the cloud becomes increasingly nibbled from the north-west,
01:14the east, the south overnight so the hole gets smaller but still some clear spells for
01:19parts of Scotland, still some frost and fog patches through the hours of darkness. But
01:25for eastern parts of England we've got low cloud pushing in. That will result in gloomy
01:29conditions at the start of Thursday, some drizzly rain and some hill fog. 4 or 5 Celsius
01:35where we've got the cloud sheet, sub-zero where we've got the clear skies. So some brightness
01:41there for parts of central and southern Scotland first thing Thursday, some lingering fog patches,
01:48otherwise a lot of cloud. That cloud low so it's going to be misty and grey for much of
01:52England, particularly towards the east of England and the drizzly rain continues on
01:57and off throughout much of the day in these areas. A little brighter towards the south-west,
02:01Northern Ireland seeing a lot of cloud but for Scotland we keep the sunny skies for one
02:06more day before the cloud here turns up into Friday. Coldest weather where we've got the
02:13sunshine actually because of the frosty start, otherwise it's 8 to 10 Celsius and that brisk
02:19easterly wind continues along the south coast. Now the cloud across the north-west of Scotland
02:25begins to sink south-eastwards on Thursday night and the cloud towards the south drifts
02:31northwards so the hole across Scotland becomes increasingly small. Friday is looking like
02:35a much cloudier day as this cold front sinks south. That's going to bring some showery
02:39rain but it's going to weaken as it runs into high pressure. Nevertheless the high pressure
02:43that's been in charge all week disappears to the east. Another high turns up but this
02:48one is going to be centred towards the south-west. That's going to allow some weather fronts
02:52to run in to northern parts of the UK increasingly through the weekend bringing some wetter and
02:57windy weather to the north, especially western Scotland whilst further south it remains a
03:02little more settled for the time being at least before much more changeable weather
03:07into next week.
03:08All Keep Rotated, as always, right here on YouTube. Bye bye.
