00:00Hello there, good afternoon. Another warm and muggy day to come, and could this lead

00:05to a risk of thunderstorms later? Well, for now, this afternoon there is still plenty

00:10of cloud around, still a chance of some very light showers just skirting into western parts

00:14of Scotland, parts of Northern Ireland, northern parts of England could also see the odd light

00:19shower or two, and perhaps some drizzly outbreaks just skirting across southern parts of Wales

00:23and Devon and Cornwall this afternoon as well. But for many, it is going to be much brighter,

00:27plenty of sunny spells, particularly across the southeast, and that is where it's going

00:31to feel particularly warm. Highs around 28 degrees Celsius, but a chance in some localised areas

00:36we could see a degree or two higher, and for most, it is still going to have that very muggy

00:41feel in the air, and that is going to continue as we head into this evening with plenty of

00:47cloud, outbreaks of rain once again skirting their way in from the west. But it's really

00:51across the southeast where we need to keep our eye on some heavy, possibly thundery showers

00:55pushing up here, particularly across parts of Kent, East Anglia, as we head towards the

01:00early part of the morning, but also a chance they could be slightly further east and miss

01:04us altogether. So one we do need to keep an eye on, but nevertheless, most should be gone

01:08by the early hours of the morning. But for many, it is going to be a cloudy and quite a damp

01:13start to the day, and quite a sultry night on offer, many towns and cities not dropping

01:17much below the mid to high teens.

01:19So for the first part of the day, yes, it is set to be unsettled. Outbreaks of quite

01:25heavy rain at times, particularly across Scotland, as this next system pushes its way eastwards,

01:30but it's fairly fast moving, so by the time we reach the afternoon, particularly from the

01:34west, we're going to see a return of those bright and sunny spells. And behind this area

01:38of rain, a much fresher feel to the air as well, so not feeling quite as muggy, though it

01:43is still going to be feeling warm in the sunshine, particularly across the central and south-eastern

01:47parts of the UK. Highs still reaching around 25 degrees Celsius here, so a degree or two

01:52down compared to this afternoon, so still feeling warm in the sunshine, but not quite as muggy.

01:58And then for the rest of the week, we do have a ridge of high pressure building to the south,

02:02so once again pushing in a return of that warmer air, so that fresher feeling day as we

02:06head into Thursday is going to be quite a brief interlude. And notice low pressure is never

02:10too far behind, so still some rain on the cards to finish off the week and as we head

02:15into the weekend. But of course, for more updates on that, you can subscribe to our YouTube channel.
