00:00good afternoon well what was a very wet saturday out there for some of us it's going to be turning

00:06much brighter and more settled as we go through the new week with higher pressure building but

00:10also feeling colder out there with a frost to start the mornings now let's have a look at the

00:16bigger picture because low pressure has cleared its way eastward driving down northerly winds

00:20so tapping into some arctic air but higher pressure becoming more dominant as we go through

00:26the week so keeping things largely fine dry and settled as the air of high pressure does just

00:32shift its way eastwards the temperatures will just generally recover as we go through the week

00:38but back to the rest of this afternoon we've got cloud lingering across the south of england through

00:43this afternoon a few showery outbreaks of rain across the far southwest but it's a much drier and brighter

00:50picture across wales and northern england compared to saturday the focus for the showers will be

00:55across northern ireland parts of northern england but more so across scotland especially orkney and

01:01shetland and some of the showers could be heavy especially across north eastern coast and perhaps

01:05even a little bit wintry over the highest mountains of scotland but otherwise for all of us it's feeling

01:12cooler out there temperatures below average for the time of year we may see up to 16 or 17 degrees

01:18across the south and east but if i turn on the winds and the feels like temperature well

01:24actually when exposed to that brisk northeasterly breeze temperatures are going to feel more like

01:30six or seven degrees and even down that northeastern coast only around 10 or 11. so as we go through

01:37the rest of this afternoon and evening time the cloud across the south will sink its way southwards

01:43most of the showers will start fading away as we go through the evening mainly lingering across

01:48coastal districts but always the focus for some showers across orkney and shetland

01:54otherwise with higher pressure building in the winds will be turning lighter especially out

01:58towards the west and with lengthy clear skies temperatures are going to be falling away so

02:03actually we're likely to see the first widespread frost of the season perhaps just holding up a

02:09little bit higher across the far southeast where we hold on to a bit more of a breeze

02:13so a chilly but bright start to monday morning there'll be a focus for some showers again across

02:20eastern areas and especially along that dover strait otherwise cloud pushing into parts of scotland

02:27always the focus for some showers across orkney and shetland but for the vast majority it's fine

02:32it's dry it's more settled with plenty in the way of sunny spells otherwise though temperatures

02:39are still going to be below average for the time of year but we'll have lighter winds compared to

02:44what we'll see on sunday so actually in the sunshine still hopefully feeling pleasant enough

02:48up to 16 or 17 degrees so as we go through monday evening then we hold on to a fair bit of cloud

02:55across northern parts of england into scotland always the focus for some showers across shetland

03:01but otherwise for most generally it's clear skies as we go through monday night into tuesday

03:06morning but a subtle shift in the wind direction perhaps not feeling as cold as what we'll see
