00:00Hello there, very good evening to you. I hope you've had a lovely weekend. As we transition
00:05into the new week there are two competing factors in our weather. High pressure in the
00:10south east and low pressure up towards the north west are trying to provide two very
00:15different themes. In the middle there's a very tight squeeze in the ice bars, particularly
00:20for northern areas of Scotland this evening and overnight. We're going to see some very
00:23strong gusts of wind, severe gales around for a time as this cold front pushes its way
00:27in. Whilst these south westerly winds are strong, they're also very mild. If we trace
00:34those ice bars all the way back, the source region for those winds is all the way down
00:38in the Atlantic, filtering in some very mild conditions for the time of year. So certainly
00:43next week is going to be noticeably less cold for many of us compared to the one we've just
00:48experienced. If we just rewind back then to Sunday evening and for now, it's still a few
00:53hours away before we see that cold front eventually pushing into the far north west,
00:57but still some outbreaks of lighter rain and drizzle around for Scotland and Northern Ireland
01:01and the widely cloudy skies. A few clearer spells across England and Wales that will
01:06allow for a touch of patchy frost to develop during the forthcoming night, particularly
01:10eastern Wales down towards south eastern parts of England as well. Temperatures otherwise
01:15managing to hold up just around freezing, about one to three degrees celsius in some
01:19of our towns and cities. This cool theme will continue throughout the day in more central
01:25and southern areas on Monday. There could be a few isolated mist and fog patches first
01:29thing as well. It will take a little bit of time to eventually clear their way off. It
01:33should stay mostly dry here. Meanwhile, the rain in the northwest will turn heavier for
01:37a time, particularly around higher ground sites, and we'll start to see it push into
01:41the far northwest of England, also around Anglesea and northwestern Wales during the
01:45afternoon period as well. But this frontal system is going to act as a boundary line
01:50for our temperatures. Those strong but mild southwesterly winds are going to start feeding
01:56in double digit temperatures right across the board for Scotland and Northern Ireland,
02:00even under the widely gusty conditions further towards the south and east. It's still a little
02:05cooler, five to seven degrees celsius here is closer towards average for the time of
02:10year. During Monday night and into Tuesday, this frontal system is going to slowly weaken,
02:16but also stall across more central areas of the UK. It's still going to provide that boundary
02:22line between our temperatures. So as we start off on Tuesday morning, again, we've got a
02:27north to south contrast in things much milder across Scotland and Northern Ireland, but
02:31maybe still a patchy frost in more rural areas across the far south of England. Again, a
02:36few isolated mist and fog patches are possible here, first thing on Tuesday, just to watch
02:41out for. But with the rain now easing, it's mainly going to be light and drizzly outbreaks
02:46across some hills. So Airdrie, the Pennines, parts of the Lake District, also for the Highland
02:51districts as well. The best chance of some sunshine on Tuesday at the moment is looking
02:55like for some far southern coastal areas and coastal districts of England. Also some eastern
03:02areas of Scotland should hopefully see some brighter and sunnier spells developing at
03:06times. Those temperatures then ranging from 8 to 12 degrees Celsius, but not quite in
03:12the way you'd normally expect it with northern areas still seeing the most mildest of them.
03:17And that north to south topsy turvy nature is going to continue right throughout the
03:22forthcoming week. So do stay up to date with the forecast and we'll be able to provide
03:26more details on all of that. And we'll see you again here later on. Bye bye.
