00:00Hello there, welcome to your Wednesday morning weather update from the Met Office.

00:05Now through today, high pressure remains firmly in charge across the country.

00:09Now with that, a lot of cloud trapped underneath it and we're seeing some fog first thing.

00:14Things do change subtly as we head through Thursday, more about that in a moment.

00:20For the time being, if you are stepping out, it's a bit of a chilly start across central

00:23and northern areas of Scotland.

00:25Breezy across the far north there with the odd showery burst.

00:28You can see more cloud and a bit of dampness in the air for the central belt down towards

00:32Northumberland as well as Cumbria.

00:34A lot of clouds covering much of Northern Ireland as well.

00:37And then further south, there are some fog patches lurking out there where we've seen

00:41clearer skies overnight.

00:43Towards the south though, that cloud is fairly thick, winds remain fairly light and one or

00:47two showers just flirting with the south coast.

00:50So all in all, not a lot of weather going on, but certainly not a lot of sunshine through

00:54the first part of the day, although hazy sunshine to start the day once the sun arrives

00:59across central and northern areas of Scotland.

01:02Now through today, you will find the cloud will break at times.

01:05That's going to allow some brighter breaks to come through, if not some sunshine.

01:09So the cloud thinning, you can see here some sunshine just trying to get through.

01:14Favoured spots will always be central and eastern areas of Scotland, north east England

01:18not doing too badly at all, and the breeze will pick up across the western isles as we

01:22head through the day.

01:23In any sunshine, temperatures 14 to 16 degrees Celsius, so slightly above average for this

01:29time of year.

01:30Here's that subtle change coming in across Scotland on Thursday.

01:34The winds pick up here as this area of high pressure sinks down towards the south and

01:38what that means gusty over the highlands, the southern uplands, as well as north Pennines.

01:43And the winds will pick up as we head through Wednesday evening coming in from the southwest.

01:48So temperatures will be relatively mild overnight as the cloud thickens all the while.

01:53Dusty rain on those upslopes towards the west there, more persistent rain just affecting

01:58Shetland and those winds increasing slightly across more northern parts of England, southern

02:04areas of Scotland.

02:06Towards the south, that's where the lowest temperatures are.

02:08And again, as temperatures dip down to around 7 to 9 degrees Celsius with a light wind,

02:13we could see some mist and fog patches forming as we head into Thursday morning.

02:18Through Thursday, a canvas of cloud breaking at times, allowing for some brighter skies

02:24to come through.

02:25So again, there's not a lot of change here.

02:28Subtle movements in our weather, but certainly we'll see more clouds and some patchy rain

02:32continuing across the north as well as the west of Scotland with those gusty winds over

02:37the hills.

02:38The winds ease into Friday.

02:39Again, there's a lot of cloud around, the clouds could break at times.

02:43Into the weekend, not a lot of change.

02:45This is high pressure for you, anti-cyclonic gloom for some, brighter skies for others.

02:50I'll see you later.

02:51Bye bye.

02:52Have a lovely day.
