00:00Hello.
00:01Welcome to your weather for the week
00:02ahead from the Met Office.
00:03There's more rain to come this week.
00:05If you're after a drier period,
00:07well, the middle of the week offers
00:09something a little bit drier for
00:10many of us.
00:11And actually, Tuesday night for
00:12Bonfire Night looks largely
00:14dry at this stage, but it's not
00:16going to be mild, if anything,
00:18feeling a lot colder this week
00:19with further rain to come by the
00:21end of the week.
00:22The bigger picture tells the story.
00:24This is Monday's chart.
00:25Low pressure controlling our
00:27weather. Fast forward to Friday
00:29and it looks remarkably similar.
00:31That's not the same low.
00:32We will get something a bit drier
00:34in between, but it kind of tells
00:35the story that low pressure will be
00:37dominating this week.
00:38Let's rewind and run through
00:40day by day.
00:41Looking at Monday night into
00:43Tuesday, that first low starts to
00:45drift to the south and that
00:47allows colder air to start
00:49to push in across Scotland and
00:50Northern Ireland.
00:51This weather front will bring
00:53some dull and damp conditions,
00:55certainly across northeast England
00:56early on on Tuesday.
00:58And that showery rain pushing into
00:59the Midlands, parts of East Anglia
01:01and the southeast during Tuesday
01:03afternoon. A few showers will come
01:05into northern and eastern Scotland,
01:07but for many western areas,
01:08Tuesday looks quite a bit drier.
01:10We should see some sunshine at
01:12times in Northern Ireland, western
01:14parts of Scotland in particular.
01:15Temperature wise, well, that cooler
01:17air is pushing in.
01:18So single digits across Scotland,
01:2011 to 13 elsewhere,
01:22but feeling cold with that wind
01:24coming in from the North Sea and
01:25with a cloud and the showery rain
01:27across the southeastern corner
01:29during Tuesday evening.
01:30Now, it will still be here through
01:32the evening as well.
01:33So although I said many places
01:35having a fine bonfire night,
01:37there will still be some showers
01:38across eastern Scotland and
01:40particularly across East Anglia and
01:41the southeast and certainly
01:43wherever you are, even if it's dry,
01:44as in nothing falling from the sky,
01:46it will be wet underfoot.
01:48And it's only quite chilly as well.
01:50A cold night Tuesday night
01:52between weather systems, a very
01:54brief ridge tries to move
01:56in. That will allow some fog patches
01:58to form for Wednesday morning and
02:00it will allow those temperatures to
02:01drop away.
02:02So a cold, potentially frosty
02:04start on Wednesday morning.
02:05But weather fronts aren't too far
02:07away and these will be shimmying
02:09in through the day, bringing cloud
02:11and some showery rain to
02:13western areas.
02:14The odd shower close to eastern
02:16coast, but for many central and
02:17eastern parts, Wednesday is dry
02:19until this band of rain creeps its
02:21way in.
02:22That's cloud increasing coming
02:24in after a cold night on Tuesday
02:26night means temperatures could
02:27really struggle on Wednesday,
02:28single digits in many places
02:30and feeling particularly cold as
02:32that rain drifts in
02:34from this area of low pressure that
02:35then takes control of our weather
02:37through the second half of the
02:39week. Again, the isobar is quite
02:40close together.
02:41So again, there could be some
02:42stronger winds later in the week,
02:44and particularly close to this low,
02:45some heavy, maybe even thundery
02:47showers across the southwest.
02:49It's another day of bands of showers
02:51drifting across the country around
02:53that area of low pressure.
02:54Again, it won't rain all day.
02:56There will be drier and brighter
02:58spells, but temperature wise,
02:59again, many places won't
03:02get out of single figures.
03:03Seven to nine degrees typically,
03:05maybe 10 or 11 on the south coast.
03:06But again, possibly quite gusty
03:08here close to that area of low
03:10pressure that's still with us as we
03:11go into Friday, showing
03:14signs of ebbing away, perhaps
03:15through the day. There's quite a
03:16bit of uncertainty as we get
03:17towards the end of the week.
03:19But again, around that low pressure
03:20system, there will be showers
03:22through the course of Friday,
03:23especially early on on Friday
03:24morning. And then the winds start
03:26to come in again from the north
03:27across parts of Scotland.
03:28So feeling quite cold here
03:30and possibly with some frost
03:32around as we go into the weekend.
03:34Look at the maximum temperatures.
03:35Again, it's single figures for most
03:36places are quite a bit colder
03:38than it has been recently.
03:39But if that low does ever weigh,
03:41then we could start to see some
03:43drier and brighter weather returning
03:44into Friday afternoon and Friday
03:46night. A bit of uncertainty then as
03:48we go into the weekend, that low
03:50pulls away.
03:51We try and build in a brief
03:53ridge of high pressure, but there
03:54are weather fronts waiting to
03:55bring more wet weather in from the
03:57west once more.
03:58So as I said, a bit of uncertainty
04:00about the weekend, it could start
04:01dry and a little bit chilly.
04:03But stay tuned to the forecast
04:04throughout this week and we'll
04:06update you on the progress of the
04:07weekend. There's always more on our
04:09social media channels.
