00:00Hello there, welcome to your Thursday morning weather update from the Met Office.
00:05Rain is arriving across the west, further east a dry start to the day, although we are
00:09seeing some showers across Shetland.
00:11The air is relatively cold.
00:13This is a weakening band of rain, sporadic birds pushing over north eastwards, pivoting
00:17across Northern Ireland.
00:18You'll see probably the most wet weather and then it turns drier into Friday morning with
00:23a frost and fog before yet again more wet weather comes in.
00:27And this band of rain will be more persistent, slow moving, a broader area of wet weather
00:32and also the winds will be stronger as well into Saturday morning.
00:36For the time being there are the showers of the Northern Isles, clearer skies across mainland
00:40Scotland, the rain clipping Western Isles, South West Scotland, Northern England and Northern
00:44Ireland seeing some heavier pulses through the morning.
00:48That rain extends down towards East Wales in Midland, Central Southern England but notice
00:51showers already moving in, that rain has cleared the West Country as well as Wales and those
00:55showers will continue through the day.
00:57But notice the cloud is breaking behind this band of rain so you should see some brighter
01:02weather.
01:03Certainly some brighter weather coming through across the far north of Scotland.
01:07Eastern counties through the morning seeing some clearer skies but this band of rain just
01:12pushing towards these parts as we head into late morning through the afternoon.
01:18That rain already across central and southern parts of Scotland will push into more northern
01:23areas as it continues to rain across Western Scotland and Northern Ireland.
01:29Brighter skies in its wake with those showers across southern and western facing coasts and
01:33that brisk breeze continues across eastern Scotland clipping the far east of England.
01:38Temperatures will be similar to yesterday.
01:41Now let's head into this evening and see what's happening.
01:44Well two things are happening.
01:46First of all the rain is slowly clearing towards the north east.
01:50Clearer skies inland, still those showers just peppering coastlines but it is going to turn
01:56a lot colder.
01:58Expect a frost into the early hours of Friday morning and with lighter breezes also some fog is
02:03likely.
02:04It's going to be a cold start to the day then but bright with some sunshine.
02:08But that's not the end of the story as you see that cloud and rain roll in from the west.
02:13So by around mid morning, Northern Ireland, Wales, the west country, some heavier pulses
02:17are likely yet again and we could see that rain being quite persistent through the afternoon.
02:22So some good few hours of rain likely as it slowly pushes towards southwest Scotland,
02:28eastern counties of England.
02:29And your outlook through Saturday, it reaches the north there with showers to follow and temperatures
02:33recovering just a little bit wherever you are.
02:36Take care, have a good day and I'll see you again soon.
02:38Thank you
