00:00A mixed bag of weather to come this weekend as parts of Scotland could see
00:03some of the best weather they've had so far this year. Meanwhile across southern
00:08areas further outbreaks of heavy rain to come on Friday evening. We've got this
00:12band of narrow but quite heavy rain moving northwards into parts of South
00:17Wales, the Midlands as well through Friday evening after a very wet day
00:21across southern areas of England. Now that's because we've got a weather front
00:24across southern areas that's drifting northwards. It does become a weaker
00:27feature through Friday night and into Saturday morning so that will bring some
00:31respite from the torrential rain and elsewhere we've got an easterly wind
00:35developing, we've got high pressure dominating further north and that easterly wind
00:39will drag in some high and low cloud to parts of eastern Scotland, north-eastern
00:43England. That will generally burn back through the day but there will still be
00:46some drizzly outbreaks of rain across coastal areas through much of the day
00:50and another widely very settled day across parts of Northern Ireland, Western
00:54Scotland, Northern Scotland as well as parts of north-western England. However
00:58there's a risk of a few showers developing where we see the remnants of
01:01that weather front across parts of Wales, central areas of England and some of
01:05those showers could bring some localised travel disruption so it's worth keeping
01:09up to date because there's a forecast if you're in these areas. Now further south
01:13behind that weather front it will probably be a much drier start to the
01:17day on Saturday but the next band of rain will likely arrive through the day
01:21on Saturday. There is some uncertainty on the timings of the next batch of rain
01:26in between any of that rain though not feeling too bad, it's fairly humid
01:29actually, highs of around 22 to 24 degrees across southern areas. Across
01:34the north and west though temperatures could climb up towards 25 or 26 degrees
01:39once again across parts of the Highlands so another very warm day for the time of
01:44year, quite a nice and settled day. However across central areas where
01:48there's more in the way of cloud it's going to be a much cooler day on
01:51Saturday compared to Friday, these are the temperatures, the temperature
01:55difference between Friday and Saturday you can see it's a good five or six
01:59degrees cooler for these areas of England and Wales. In the south though
02:02with a better chance of some sunshine on Saturday it will be a slightly warmer
02:06day so I think Saturday will be more widely the better day of the weekend as
02:11that plume of wetter weather from the south will eventually become more
02:16widespread across the UK as this area of low pressure moves in from the south
02:20with that wet weather as we head into Sunday and that will bring a swirl of
02:25wet weather to much of England and Wales throughout Sunday. It's not going to
02:29reach as far north as parts of Northern Ireland and Western Scotland but it will
02:33be a much cloudier day here on Sunday compared to Saturday, still some sunshine
02:38around and still not feeling too bad at all in that sunshine but outbreaks of
02:41potentially quite torrential rain will affect a large swathe of England and
02:47Wales throughout Sunday. Now there is some uncertainty with exactly where the
02:51heaviest rainfall will be but it's likely to be a fairly warm feeling day
02:56for most areas 21 to 24 degrees as our maximum temperatures we've got humid air
03:01but very little in the way of sunshine. Now as I said there is some uncertainty
03:05with exactly where we'll see the heaviest rainfall, these charts show you
03:09the places that are most likely to see some of that heaviest rainfall. We've got
03:13the Met Office model on one side and the European model on the other side here
03:17and you can see there's some quite big differences still a few days away from
03:21Sunday with how much rain is going to fall in 24 hours. So some charts are
03:26showing us that it's mainly eastern areas of England that will see the
03:29heaviest rainfall and perhaps some flooding issues and travel disruption
03:33through Sunday but other areas are saying it could actually be more
03:36widespread into parts of northern England, southern Scotland and parts of
03:39Wales and the southwest once again where we're already going to see the heaviest
03:42rain through Friday as well as Thursday. So still a few details to be worked out
03:48for where's going to see the heaviest rain on Sunday but it's looking like a
03:50much more widely unsettled day due to this area of low pressure. But through
03:55Sunday evening it is likely to move away to the east and once that low pressure
03:59does move away we'll be into a northwesterly wind direction which is a
04:03much cooler wind direction so it is going to turn much fresher and stay
04:07quite unsettled with further wet weather moving into the northwest this time from
04:12the start of next week. But with heavy rainfall in the forecast through the
04:15next few days please stay tuned to our forecast, check out our app for details
