00:00Thanks for joining me for your evening weather update from the Met Office. The

00:04weather's definitely changed. Milder air has moved in and that's brought with it

00:09cloud and rain. We've seen some pulses of rain across the country already and

00:13another band of rain becoming pretty widespread through this evening. Some

00:16heavier rain at times for Northern Ireland this evening and that heavier

00:19rain spreading into Scotland and across Northern England. It's getting a bit lighter

00:23and more patchy through the night but overall an overcast night, a breezy

00:27night and for many a damp night. And it is going to be a mild night. In fact

00:32turning milder as we go through the night. If we rewind the clock and put the

00:36temperatures on, just watch as the rain moves in the temperature actually start

00:41to tick up so that yeah we could dip down to three or four degrees in the

00:45east for a time through the evening but by the time we start Thursday we're up

00:49at seven or eight Celsius and many western areas will start the day in

00:53double figures. So it starts quite mild but it doesn't feel that mild because it's

00:58still pretty breezy particularly in the west and it is cloudy with outbreaks of

01:02rain. That rain likes to be pretty heavy through the morning across Northern

01:05Ireland. Brighter colours there then work into Western Scotland. Northwest England

01:10seeing some heavier pulse of rain along with North Wales. Eastern England may

01:13start dry. Some showery rain that does work in here particularly for Kent and

01:18Essex. Something a bit brighter then develops for Wales. Northwest England

01:22come the end of the day. It cheers up for a time across Scotland and Northern

01:25Ireland but then more showers come packing in here because it will be quite

01:29a blustery and gusty day around these western coasts even though we should see

01:34some sunny spells developing. We'll certainly see the temperatures ticking up. Look at

01:37that 13, 14 degrees. We could even see 15 perhaps even close to 16 degrees in one

01:44or two spots. That's a lot milder than it has been. Now this chart shows how the

01:48temperatures change over 24 hours and you can see that milder air really

01:54moving in and temperatures by Thursday afternoon some six degrees above the

02:01average for many central and northern parts having been a few degrees below

02:04average for about most of February. So yes it's turning milder but there'll

02:09still be plenty of showers around across Scotland, Northern England during

02:12Thursday evening. For many though it will turn drier for a time but look at this

02:17another batch of wet and increasingly windy weather comes in during Friday. The

02:22winds getting really quite gusty around these western coasts. The west coast of

02:25Wales, east coast of Northern Ireland through the early hours of Friday morning

02:30but again those winds are coming up from the south so they're bringing mild air so

02:34many will stay in double digits into Friday morning. But Friday is a wet and a

02:38windy day for quite a few of us. Heavy pulses of rain and those gusty winds

02:43as I talked about the west coast of Wales, the east coast of Northern Ireland,

02:46southwestern parts of Scotland. There's a warning in place and there's also a

02:49rain warning across parts of Scotland because for some here stays very wet

02:53throughout the day. Pulses of rain further south again much of eastern

02:57England probably not seeing too much in Northern Ireland may well turn brighter

03:01but still blustery with a few showers. And look at the numbers again for many

03:05of us getting into the teens 15 or perhaps even 16 at Celsius. Again

03:10perhaps not feeling as mild as those numbers would suggest because of the

03:14strength of the wind. And there's more wet and windy weather to come. Low

03:18pressure continues to dominate moved in from the Atlantic change things up and

03:23then another one comes in for Saturday night and into Sunday. Saturday looks a

03:27lot drier certainly many western areas compared to Friday but by Sunday

03:31another deep low, another weather front, more closely packed isobar so more wet

03:36and windy weather is on the cards. Keep up to date with the Met Office weather

03:40warnings there on the app and on the website and for more details about the

03:43weekend and beyond check out the 10-day trend you can see that on our YouTube
