00:00Hello there, good morning.

00:01Welcome to your weather update from the Met Office.

00:04Once again, there's going to be plenty of sunshine to go around today, but there's a

00:07chance we could see some mist and fog this morning, particularly across parts of the

00:11south, though it should clear quite readily through the course of the morning.

00:15And that leaves a very pleasant end to the week, wall-to-wall sunshine for many areas.

00:19The only caveat to that is across the far north of Scotland, more cloud pushing in here,

00:23this thick enough to produce some light outbreaks of rain, particularly across Shetland and

00:26Orkney as we head into the afternoon.

00:28A bit breezier across the far north of Scotland too, but for many areas, light winds, sunshine

00:33and some very warm temperatures.

00:35Highs of 21, possibly 22 or 23 degrees Celsius.

00:41Into the evening, once again, turning chilly as soon as the sunshine goes down.

00:44It's not going to be turning quite as cold as it has done over recent nights, but a chance

00:48we could still see some frost in rural spots.

00:51Once again, a chance of some mist and fog too, where we see the light winds.

00:54Still plenty of cloud across the far north of Scotland.

00:57By the time we reach the early hours of the morning, perhaps just a little bit of cloud

01:00just starting to clip into parts of Cornwall.

01:02But a dry night overall with lows of around three to four degrees Celsius.

01:07Now, for the beginning of the weekend, there is still going to be lots of sunshine around.

01:13Lots of dry weather, feeling warm in the sunnier spells too.

01:16But we are beginning to see a little bit of a change.

01:18More clouds starting to push in from the southwest, feeding into southern parts of Wales, parts

01:23of Devon and Cornwall.

01:24It's likely we'll see some showers by the time we reach the afternoon.

01:27And similarly, across the very far northwest, western parts of England should start to see

01:31some more cloud push in as we head through into the afternoon.

01:34But across eastern areas, still plenty of blue skies around and still feeling warm.

01:38Highs of 21 to 22 Celsius, but a bit cooler in certain spots.

01:42For example, western parts of Scotland feeling a slightly cooler here, but still highs of

01:4615 to 16 degrees Celsius.

01:50Through into Saturday evening, we'll begin to see that change for the second half of

01:55the weekend.

01:56This frontal system moving in its way from the west.

01:59This is going to push in more cloud outbreaks of rain and notice these colours behind me.

02:03It's also bringing in some slightly cooler air.

02:05So the warmest days are likely to be Friday and Saturday and then Sunday, things cooling

02:10off, likely to see plenty of rain and showers too.
