00:00Hello there, welcome to your Tuesday evening weather update from the Met Office.
00:04Increasingly we're seeing heatwave conditions as temperatures peak above 25 degrees Celsius in the north,
00:11above 30 degrees Celsius in the south.
00:14High pressure remains in charge and an influence from the near continent where France as well as Spain and Portugal
00:21experiencing high heat here and heatwave conditions.
00:24Now through Thursday there's a chance of some sharp showers which could be impactful particularly across Scotland.
00:30The distribution is somewhat uncertain at the moment, I'll show you some more details on that in a moment,
00:35but certainly the heat extends through into the latter part of the week.
00:40And through this evening it's clear skies across many areas,
00:43maybe a little bit of low cloud lapping along the shoreline of South Wales, the west country southern parts of England
00:49and also across the far northwest where we could see low cloud here.
00:53One or two showers moving northward, certainly some showers reserved for the southern part of Shetland
00:59as temperatures hold around 15 in the north, so a mild night and then a warm one in the south is going to be muggy and uncomfortable for some.
01:09First thing then tomorrow morning, you may find more cloud first thing across more southern and western areas of England and Wales.
01:16Clearer skies elsewhere, some sunshine on offer.
01:18For Northern Ireland, it's another fine day and a very warm one, but notice some low cloud near the North Channel.
01:24So here you could see some low cloud first thing, it will burn back as it will do so across the Outer Hebrides.
01:30Through the day a few fleeting showers for Shetland, Orkney and Caithness.
01:35And notice one or two showers just migrating northwards through the latter part of the day across central southern England as well as the home counties.
01:43For most though, it's a dry one, it's a bright one with some strong sunshine and feeling hot.
01:48Look at this, highest temperatures probably eastern counties of England.
01:52Here we could see a peak value of around 32 to perhaps even 34 degrees Celsius.
01:57Across Scotland, 27 for the central belt and for Northern Ireland, 25, 26 helped with that sunshine.
02:03Now for Wales, it's really mid-Wales, eastern parts of Wales, seeing temperatures into the 30s and the mid-20s further south.
02:11Bit of a breeze down towards the far southwest.
02:13Generally speaking though, it's a very warm end to the day, if not a hot one.
02:18Now notice these showers continue to migrate northwards and clear eastern counties through Wednesday evening.
02:25Some will blossom also across southern parts of Scotland and gradually track northwards.
02:30So some showers in the mix as we head into the early hours of Thursday morning.
02:35And Thursday dawns like this, there'll be a little bit more on the way of cloud around.
02:40Yes, some showers which could turn heavy, particularly across Scotland.
02:44And we could see some quite torrential downpours if you catch one with the risk of thunder.
02:50Brighter skies across central and eastern areas of England, but cloud never too far away.
02:55And that cloud will just come and go through the day as it drifts eastwards through the morning into the afternoon,
03:01with some showers developing across Wales and northern England.
03:05And we continue with a scattering of heavy but infrequent showers across Scotland.
03:11For Northern Ireland, it's a fine day, a mix of cloud and sunshine.
03:15And here, temperature is 22, 23.
03:17Yet again, there's a chance of seeing a 30 somewhere across eastern counties, depending on sunshine amounts.
03:23Generally speaking, we're seeing temperatures reach almost to the mid-20s across Scotland and the high-20s across England and Wales.
03:31So feeling very warm after a muggy night, another uncomfortable one.
03:36And those temperatures extend into Friday as well.
03:40Yet again, on Friday, there will be a risk of those showers and the cloud comes and goes.
03:46Certainly, you'll see that overnight Thursday into Friday for Scotland.
03:50A little cloud, maybe some mist and fog patches further south as well.
03:54And a bit of a breeze coming down that eastern side on Friday morning with low cloud shrouding the hills as well as the mountains and the coastline.
04:03But Friday across England and Wales will be sunny.
04:06We'll see that cloud breaking at times across Scotland as well as Northern Ireland.
04:10So some fine weather coming through and one or two showers just clustering over the hills and mountains in the north.
04:17Now, here are your temperatures through Friday.
04:20Yet again, we'll see values reaching into the 30s towards the southeast.
04:24Generally speaking, the low to mid-20s.
04:27So for some, that heat wave continues into the latter part of the week.
04:31I'll see you later.
04:32I'll see you later.
