00:00 Hello there. Many of us will be waking up to a very unsettled start to the new working
00:04 week all courtesy of Storm Debbie that has been named by Met Air and the Irish Weather
00:08 Service. It's this area of low pressure that will very quickly deepen overnight, those
00:12 ice bars really squeezing together, providing this wave of gales severe for a time along
00:17 coastal areas of the Irish Sea, spreading its way into parts of Northern Ireland, Northern
00:20 Wales and into Northern England as well. These darkest colours here indicating that we've
00:25 got the potential for 80 mile an hour gusts of wind around some coastal areas, perhaps
00:29 even over the Pennines for a time during the morning and even other inland areas of Northern
00:34 England, North Wales, South East Northern Ireland have the potential to see 55 to 65
00:38 mile an hour gusts of wind as well. So please do take care. Some significant disruption
00:42 is possible during the day with flying debris in places, very large waves around coastal
00:48 areas and disruption to transport and infrastructure. It's not just the strong winds that will provide
00:53 the disruption. Some heavy rainfall is also coming in association with Storm Debbie.
00:58 Across Sunday evening, though, we've got some lighter, patchier rainfall across parts of
01:02 Northern England, spreading its way into Scotland as we head later on in the night. But it's
01:07 here in the southwest that we see the rainfall associated with Storm Debbie beginning to
01:10 arrive into England, Wales turning heavy, but particularly persistent for Northern Ireland
01:15 in the second half of the night. And here we could potentially see some flooding issues
01:19 as we head towards dawn on Monday morning. With all the rain and the cloud moving its
01:23 way in, it's not going to be too chilly of a night for most of us, generally holding
01:26 up around six to nine degrees Celsius. But where the winds are just a touch lighter,
01:31 some clearer spells across parts of northern Scotland, a very patchy frost is possible
01:35 in the sheltered rural glens. But please do be prepared for a very disruptive morning
01:40 rush hour period with those significantly strong winds, severe gales around the Irish
01:45 Sea coast pushing into northern areas of England and Wales and also a lot of spray on roads
01:50 due to this heavy rainfall that will be pushing its way in across Northern Ireland, parts
01:54 of Wales, Northern England and then eventually into Scotland later on in the day. As it does
01:59 arrive, it will be eastern Scotland that becomes a particular focus again for flooding issues,
02:03 where we see easterly winds moving around the northern edge of Storm Debbie, pushing
02:07 in that rainfall persistently over the course of the day. 30 to 50 millimetres of rain is
02:11 possible here. The southern central areas of England and Wales, some brighter spells
02:15 of early and perhaps even into south eastern areas of Northern Ireland later on as well.
02:20 There's still some quite blustery winds around over the course of the day, so that will just
02:24 take the edge off the feel of things. But on the thermometer, at least temperatures
02:27 slightly milder with 15 to 16 degrees Celsius possible underneath the more persistent cloud
02:32 of rain for Scotland and northern England, only around 10 degrees Celsius. Storm Debbie
02:38 will eventually clear its way off as we head into Monday evening, pushing its way into
02:42 the North Sea. That will take most of those strongest winds and the heaviest rainfall
02:46 with it. So things calming down ever so slightly, but still quite an unsettled night. We'll
02:51 start to see showers pushing their way in from the west. Some of those could turn heavy
02:55 for a time. Quite a lot of clouds still across northern areas of England and Scotland, but
02:59 some clearer spells across central southern areas of England and Wales. Temperatures still
03:04 holding up around 6 to 10 degrees Celsius for most of us with those showers and the
03:08 cloud still hanging around. Tuesday then turns into a day of showers for the vast majority
03:14 of the UK. They'll be most frequent in the west, again heavy at times with some thunderstorms,
03:19 hail in the mixture also. Again, it will be the northern half that sees most of the cloud
03:25 over the course of the day. You might start to see some sunnier breaks developing in between
03:28 those showers across southern areas, maybe even into parts of northern Ireland later
03:32 in the afternoon as well. But still quite an unsettled, changeable day for a lot of
03:36 us. Temperatures on the board around 9 to 14 degrees Celsius, but still quite breezy
03:42 for a lot of us. So again, just taking the edge off the feel of things, feeling cool
03:46 if you are exposed to some of those more blustery conditions. Do please stay up to date with
03:51 the forecast. We'll have plenty of updates on our social media channels in regards to
03:55 Storm Debbie and further unsettled weather is likely to occur during the second half
03:59 of the week as well. So we'll provide regular detail on that and subscribe to YouTube for
04:04 all the latest updates as well. See you again soon. Bye bye.
