00:00 Hello. For most, it's going to be a fine Tuesday. However, there is a storm on the way. It's

00:05 going to turn wet and windy from the middle of this week, thanks to Storm Babbit. It's

00:10 working its way up from the southwest, picking up moisture as it goes. We named the storm

00:15 on Monday morning. It's the rainfall that is the greatest cause for concern because

00:19 it's going to be quite slow moving. So some places could get stuck under these weather

00:23 fronts, bringing persistent and heavy rainfall through Wednesday, Thursday and indeed into

00:30 the weekend. So we do have a number of Met Office yellow warnings in place. Check out

00:34 our app and our website for more details on those. Before it arrives, however, as I said,

00:40 many places set fair through Monday night and into Tuesday, thanks to an area of high

00:45 pressure that will bring largely clear skies across the northern half of the UK. There'll

00:49 be a few showers continuing over the Northern Isles, cloud thickening in the southwest and

00:54 the breeze strengthening here through the night as well. But light winds and clear skies

00:59 across southern Scotland, Northern Ireland and Northern England. Tinge of blue on the

01:03 chart there. There could well again be some pockets of frost on Tuesday morning. Not so

01:08 though in the southwest, because the breeze strengthening quite a blustery start for southwest

01:13 England and Wales on Tuesday. Some very strong gusts, particularly to the west and north

01:19 of the hills. The breeze will strengthen across Northern Ireland, the cloud increasing here.

01:23 One or two showers, perhaps, graze in the east coast of England and still over the Northern

01:27 Isles and the cloud thick enough for some showery rain at times for Somerset, Devon,

01:32 Cornwall, maybe Pembrokeshire. But for most places, it is going to be another dry and

01:36 a bright day on Tuesday. Temperatures could be a little higher in most places compared

01:40 to Monday, but it'll probably feel just as chilly, particularly with the winds across

01:45 the south and across Wales. As I said, it could get quite gusty for a time through the

01:50 day. The wet weather will move northwards towards Northern Ireland. So we'll see our

01:54 first batch of rain coming in here on Tuesday evening. That'll spread into western Scotland

01:59 on Wednesday. And then we start to see further pulses of rain coming up from the south for

02:04 Wednesday. And these are going to turn quite heavy in places, parts of Wales and southwest

02:09 England, but particularly later on across parts of Northern Ireland. The rain could

02:13 start to build up here. Notice, though, for much of eastern Scotland, eastern England

02:18 still on Wednesday, it is mostly dry. And that wind is continuing to strengthen, bringing

02:23 maybe some large waves on some north sea coast, particularly across northeast Scotland and

02:28 still bringing a chill here as well. Temperatures in the south ticking up a little higher, 16,

02:33 17, but it will be feeling all that warm, of course, with the wind and the rain. This

02:39 heavier zone of rain tracking towards Northern Ireland. That is the first pinch point we're

02:44 concerned about from Storm Barbette as it works its way northwards. We have a Met Office

02:48 warning in place for Northern Ireland for Wednesday and into Thursday, but many other

02:52 warnings in place from Thursday onwards because of that storm system bringing some very heavy

02:58 and persistent rain, but also some strong winds as well. So do check out our app and

03:03 our website for the details of those weather warnings. And do please stay up to date with

03:08 the latest from the Met Office by following us across social media.
