00:00Good afternoon, well it's a bit of a typical British bank holiday Monday out there, showers

00:05for some of us followed by longer spells of rain. Now taking a look at the bigger picture

00:09we've got this area of low pressure that's going to be moving its way across the country

00:13bringing spells of rain overnight and then replaced by another area of low pressure as

00:19we go through Tuesday but bringing some welcome rainfall for many of us. So back to the rest

00:26of this afternoon it's rather cloudy for many of us we'll see showers most frequent across

00:31western areas and they could merge to give longer spells of rain perhaps even some hail and thunder

00:36across western parts of Scotland even across the southeast couldn't rule out a shower here

00:41and generally quite cloudy skies but out towards northern Ireland turn increasingly unsettled with

00:47longer spells of rain here and the winds will be increasing too but for many of us it's a cooler

00:54feeling day out there especially compared to the weekend highs of up to 17 18 possibly 19 in any

01:01sunny spells towards the far southeast. Now as we go through this evening this band of rain will

01:08continue to push its way eastwards turning heavy at times over the hills and across parts of Wales

01:13and that will clear eventually across the southeast as we start Tuesday morning. So we'll see clear

01:20spells behind that but also some showers feeding in again on that brisk westerly wind across parts of

01:26western Scotland but otherwise temperatures won't fall too low tonight we could see a touch of frost

01:32across eastern Scotland as we start Tuesday morning. So a bright start for many of us on Tuesday morning

01:40but it won't last too long we'll see further spells of heavy rain moving in from the south and west

01:47so turning increasingly unsettled across northern Ireland southern parts of England Wales the midlands

01:53and the far southeast. Now it's going to be heaviest over the hills across Wales parts of Exmoor Dartmoor

01:59the south Pennines but across Scotland that's where we hold on to sunny spells and a few showers

02:05they won't be as frequent as recent days but otherwise generally feeling quite cool and unpleasant underneath

02:13all that cloud rain and strong winds especially strong across the coasts. Now as we go through

02:20Tuesday afternoon and into the evening plenty of rain still around across much of England and Wales

02:26and that'll gradually slowly clear its way eastwards behind that clear skies especially across Scotland

02:32with a few showers. And that really sets the theme as we go through this week but there will be a week
