00:00Hello there, good morning. It's set to be another hot one today, more sunshine around

00:05two, though the day might not start off as such this morning. We've had some thundery

00:09showers overnight and these will still move their way north-eastwards into parts of Northern

00:12Ireland, northern parts of England, so still a chance of showers here, mostly isolated

00:17but they could be heavy if not quite thundery. But in particular, in the afternoon, there

00:21are going to be a return of the blue skies and plenty of sunshine to go around. Once

00:26again, it is set to be a very hot day, this time not just across the south-east, across

00:30parts of central England too. Likely, we'll see temperatures moving into the mid-thirties

00:35but even across Scotland, northern parts of England, Northern Ireland, still widely in

00:39the mid to high-twenties. Not much wind around either, so it is going to feel quite intense

00:43in that sunshine, so take care if you are out and about. And then through into the evening,

00:48we'll see a repeat of conditions, another warm, muggy night to come, particularly across

00:53parts of this south. We'll also see some low cloud drag in across parts of Wales and some

00:58southern counties, so it could be quite a gloomy start, but it is going to feel quite

01:01warm and muggy still. And still, once again, a chance of some showers just trying to push

01:05in to parts of Scotland by the morning. Once again, fairly isolated but a chance we could

01:09hear some rumbles of thunder. And towns and cities across this south and south-east, once

01:14again, not really dropping much past 17 to 18 degrees and even across the north, widely

01:19in the mid-teens. So it's going to be another warm start to the day. Any cloud across

01:24Wales, parts of the south, it may linger for a time before eventually the heat will allow

01:28that cloud to lift and break, allowing plenty of blue skies. The risk of showers is still

01:33on the cards. Northern parts of Scotland could see some heavy if not thundery showers. Northern

01:38Ireland and even later into the afternoon, parts of the south-east too could see a risk of

01:43showers which may turn heavy and thundery. Keep an eye on the forecast to find out exactly

01:47where the showers could be closer to the time. But otherwise, most of England and Wales are

01:51going to see another very hot day and plenty of sunshine. Now, temperatures slightly lower

01:56but nevertheless, it is still going to be feeling hot. Starting to push into the low 30s across

02:01central parts of England, eastern and north-eastern parts of England too. Many areas are going

02:05to see those warm temperatures. But as the week goes on, we'll see a slight dip in the temperatures

02:10but it is still going to be remaining fairly warm. And it's still due to low pressure out to

02:15the west, eventually drifting its way north-eastwards towards the UK. But high pressure, mostly

02:20dominating. So still lots of dry, settled conditions. Still with that warm, humid air, there's a chance

02:25of some heavy showers at times. But mostly warm, settled as the week goes on. But if you want

02:31more details, you can catch Alex Burkhill with more details on the week ahead weather on YouTube.
