00:00Hello there, good afternoon. It is somewhat mixed fortunes across the UK today in terms
00:05of our weather, with two pressure systems affecting us. It's high pressure in the north,
00:09keeping things a bit more settled, but low pressure is increasingly moving its way into
00:13the south to provide a slightly more unsettled theme over the next couple of days. For Scotland
00:18at least, with high pressure in charge, a fine day for the Highlands. Argyll and Bute,
00:21a lot of sunshine, clouds still looming though through the central belt and along those eastern
00:25coastal regions. A few sunny spells should hopefully emerge for Northern Ireland, parts
00:28of north-west England as well, but you'll see those showers starting to move their way
00:32in for Wales, central south-western areas of England. These graphics, not to be taken
00:36too literally, they will be scattered in nature, so not everyone will see the thunderstorms,
00:40but there is a warning in force throughout the rest of the day because where they do
00:43occur, we could see some torrential downpours of rain, hail, frequent lightning as well,
00:48so some travel disruption is possible and it's worth staying up to date with the forecast.
00:52You can also use the radar feature in the Met Office app to track any showers and thunderstorms
00:56as they develop during the day. If you manage to dodge the showers though, there will still
01:00be some decent sunny spells for central south-eastern areas, and so temperatures here climbing towards
01:0525 degrees Celsius. 20 degrees Celsius is also possible for the likes of Oban and other
01:10areas of north-west Scotland, where we see a lot of sunshine during today. That cloud
01:15along eastern coastal areas though will keep it a bit cooler, 13-12 degrees Celsius here,
01:20and it will start to ingress a bit more inland as we head throughout this evening, spreading
01:23its way back in, but far north-west of Scotland again, staying relatively clear. Into the
01:27evening though, those showers will push their way in across Wales, might clip the far south
01:32of Northern Ireland even, before we see another pulse of thundery rain moving its way in across
01:37the Channel Islands and then into southern areas of England come dawn tomorrow morning.
01:42Quite a muggy, mild night for a lot of us, temperatures not dropping much below 13-16
01:47degrees Celsius, but it'll be cooler again in those rural spots of north-west Scotland,
01:52particularly in those sheltered valleys, we might even see a little touch of air frost
01:55there. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, even into
01:59Northern England, Sunday is a relatively similar day. Again, the best of the sunshine will
02:02be further towards the west, whereas that cloud will try and burn its way back towards
02:06eastern coastal areas again, but could produce the odd spot of drizzle. For the south though,
02:10it is this band of thundery rain that will push its way steadily northwards, again turning
02:14very wet for Wales, central southern areas of England. Further disruption is possible
02:18with this rain already falling in places that have seen quite a lot of rainfall over
02:22the past couple of days. Still quite muggy and humid in amongst all of this, temperatures
02:26a little down, but still around 20-21 degrees Celsius, and still feeling pretty warm in
02:31that sunshine across north-western Scotland. Quite cool though, across those eastern coasts
02:36of Scotland and north-east England. This rain will linger across Wales and stall
02:40a bit into the Midlands as well as we head into Sunday evening, but it should eventually
02:45gradually move its way eastwards as we head during the day on Monday. And into the new
02:50working week, things are generally still staying on the slightly unsettled side. Tuesday could
02:55be a bit of a calmer day for many of us. Wednesday though, and into the midweek, is certainly
02:59looking increasingly wet and windy. But as we do head into the new week, temperatures
03:04are going to be dropping down a bit. For all of us, it is certainly going to be turning
03:07cooler over the next few days. There'll be plenty more updates on that across our YouTube
03:12channels, so make sure you are subscribed and ready for all of those. Otherwise, we'll
03:17see you again here very soon. Bye bye.
