00:00 Hello, here's your latest weather update from the Met Office. We'll see rather mixed weather
00:03 conditions across the UK this weekend. It's a case of sunshine and showers. Low pressures
00:08 anchor towards the north-west of the UK, feeding showers in from the west and south-west. Fairly
00:12 tightly packed isobars indicating fairly blustery conditions at times too. And then low pressure
00:16 moves in from the south-west, helding some rain for England and Wales Sunday night into
00:20 Monday.
00:21 Quite a few showers around as we go through this afternoon, certainly towards the north
00:24 and west of the UK. Some heavy, even thundery ones in places. Fairly blustery winds too.
00:29 The best of the sunshine towards the south and east. And here we'll see the best of the
00:32 temperatures up to 22 or 23 Celsius. 23 there is 73 in Fahrenheit. Pretty close to where
00:38 they should be for the time of year.
00:41 As we head through the evening into the overnight period, those showers will continue pretty
00:44 much nationwide for a time at least. But they'll become more focused towards the north and
00:48 west of the UK as we go through the overnight period. Still a few heavy ones towards the
00:52 north-west of Scotland. Towards the south and east, some drier spells developing, some
00:55 clearer spells too. But wherever you are, it's a pretty warm night for the time of year.
00:59 Temperatures holding up in the mid-teens. 15 or 16 Celsius is low towards the south.
01:03 16 is 61 in Fahrenheit.
01:06 As for Sunday, well it's another day of sunshine and showers. The focus for the heaviest showers,
01:10 the most widespread showers towards the north and north-east, particularly across parts
01:14 of Scotland. Still the chance of the odd thundery one here. Whereas towards the south and east,
01:18 particularly southern and eastern parts of England, plenty of sunny spells. But notice
01:22 rain gathering towards the south-west. That's set to move in across the UK as we go through
01:26 Sunday night.
01:27 Temperatures once again pretty much where they should be for the time of year. High
01:29 teens to low 20s Celsius. But with lighter winds, particularly across England and Wales,
01:34 feeling a little bit warmer out and about.
01:37 That's pretty much it for me, but of course you can keep tuned to the Met Office forecast
01:40 by following us on social media. I'll see you soon. Take care. Bye bye for now.
