00:00Hello, very good day to you. Plenty of sunny breaks today but also plenty of showers to watch out for as well.
00:06Some of them could be a little bit on the heavy side.
00:08Let's start off though looking at what's currently happening out in the Atlantic because there is a system that's developing.
00:14I mean, for a start, there is a what was Hurricane Aaron that's now tracked across the Atlantic.
00:19It's a relatively deep but also quite flabby low towards the northwest of the UK.
00:23And it's this that's driving the change to something more unsettled that we're seeing at the moment.
00:28And then we have this system here, a frontal system that's going to push in as we go through tomorrow, bringing some heavy, perhaps even thundery rain.
00:36But looking at the details across the UK, and yes, there are some showers around.
00:41There was a spell of slightly more persistent rain that pushed eastwards earlier on in the day.
00:45That's now clearing away. Nonetheless, could be a bit more cloud and a few spots of rain across parts of East Anglia for a little time this afternoon.
00:52Otherwise, the big talking point is really the fact that there will be sunny breaks.
00:56Yes, but plenty of those showers, especially across northern and western parts, across parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland in particular.
01:03Some of those showers are likely to be quite heavy.
01:06Further south and east, a greater chance of avoiding them.
01:08And in fact, many places are going to stay largely dry.
01:11And with the sunshine across eastern parts in particular, still feeling very warm indeed.
01:15Temperatures peaking in the mid, possibly even high 20s for some places.
01:19Further west, a fresher feel than it was over the long weekend.
01:24And temperatures here just about scraping into the low 20s for some places.
01:28So slightly cooler than it has been recently.
01:31Later on through the evening, there will still be some showers across northern and western areas.
01:35But most places will see the showers dropping out, decreasing.
01:39And so it is going to be dry for many of us with some clear skies.
01:43However, towards the far west-southwest of the country, we are going to see that system that I highlighted earlier starting to push its way in,
01:51mainly across parts of Northern Ireland, but also just about reaching the far southwest of England and Wales.
01:56So strengthening winds and some heavy, showery rain arriving as we head through towards dawn as well.
02:02Further east, where we stay with the often quite dry and clear weather, it is going to be a little bit fresher than some recent nights perhaps.
02:09But most towns and cities holding up in double digits around mid-teens for many places.
02:14A few rural spots may just about drop into single figures perhaps.
02:18And then through tomorrow, we are going to have this band of heavy and at times thundery rain making its way eastward across most parts.
02:26There will be some gusty winds on this as well, so pretty unsettled, but it's going to move through relatively quickly.
02:33As a result, the more unsettled weather shouldn't last anywhere for any particularly long period of time.
02:38That being said, we could see some relatively high rainfall totals building up.
02:42We're talking 15, 20 millimetres perhaps.
02:44And whilst this is coming in a relatively short period of time, it is going to be some welcome rain for many places.
02:50Lots of gardeners, farmers have been cooling out for some wet weather for quite a while.
02:54As that system pushes its way eastwards, we will see something a bit drier, brighter following in behind, but also a scattering of showers across western parts too.
03:03With this then, things are going to be a little bit fresher tomorrow.
03:06Temperatures down several degrees across eastern parts compared to today.
03:10And whilst in the west, they're going to be similar, maybe a degree or so down.
03:14Obviously, when we get that wetter, windier weather coming through, that is going to make it feel a fair bit cooler.
03:19That system does eventually clear away towards the east as we go through the evening.
03:25But still, some heavy bursts of rain affecting some eastern parts of England and also the northeast of Scotland for a little while yet.
03:31But drier, clearer weather following.
03:33However, that drier, clearer weather doesn't really paint the picture for the rest of the week.
03:37It is going to be markedly more unsettled than it has been recently.
03:40Quite an autumnal feel to the last week of meteorological summer with spells of rain or some showers for most of us.
03:49All of it is coming in from the west.
03:50We have quite a mobile pattern and so it's western areas where we're going to get the wettest weather.
03:55And do watch out, we could have some strong, gusty, blustery winds at times, particularly on Saturday.
04:00That's something that we're keeping an eye out for at the moment.
04:03But for more information about that, check out the deep dive, which Honor will be bringing to you later on.
04:08I'll see you again soon.
04:09Bye-bye.
