00:00Hello there, welcome to a Wednesday evening weather update from the Met Office.

00:04More wet weather arrives from the west as we head through tonight and into tomorrow.

00:09Let's pick up on the bigger picture.

00:10You can see this complex area of low pressure, slow moving.

00:14This is the rain extending northwards and northeastwards through Thursday.

00:19The air remains relatively cold and then through Thursday night it does turn cold

00:23with a frost and even some fog patches before yet again another band of rain arrives.

00:29It's associated with an area of low pressure, slow moving yet again.

00:32The winds will be stronger this time and there will be more in the way of rain

00:36and it will extend towards Scotland from the southwest.

00:41For the time being through this evening many parts seeing dry weather

00:43with those showers just drifting across the skies and then towards the west

00:48that cloud thickens and we'll see outbreaks of rain arriving across west country Wales

00:52as well as Northern Ireland into the early hours of tomorrow.

00:56showers ahead of it across western Scotland and some for Shetland as well.

01:00Elsewhere a mostly dry night, a bit chilly across the glens but it will be a wet one

01:06as we enter the day on Thursday.

01:08Anywhere from central southern England, the west country, western parts of the Midlands,

01:13Wales as well as Northern Ireland.

01:14Some heavier pulses also.

01:16Temperatures holding up across many southern and western areas, 5 or 6 degrees Celsius.

01:21First thing then tomorrow morning, well let's pick up on that rain, a wet one for Northern

01:26Ireland throughout the day.

01:27That rain continues to push in across the Midlands, Northern England, the home counties

01:32as well through morning rush hour.

01:34Brighter skies across Northern Scotland, drier for eastern counties before that rain eventually

01:39arrives across these parts.

01:40And then it brightens up across Wales, west country seeing some showers, central southern

01:44England seeing some brighter weather.

01:46But that rain across Northern Ireland continues through the afternoon as we see that wet weather

01:52arrive across central and eastern areas of Scotland through the afternoon and into evening

01:57time.

01:58Windy across Shetland and Orkney, the east coast of England as well.

02:01And a bit of a breeze down towards the west country inland.

02:04Winds will be fairly fresh, nothing to write home about as temperatures arrive 7 to 10 degrees

02:09Celsius.

02:11So that's a picture on Thursday.

02:12As I said, through Thursday evening, first of all, this wet weather clears towards the

02:16northeast.

02:17Still some showers coming in across Irish seacoast, Channel coast and for Northern Ireland as

02:23well as Western Scotland.

02:24But inland, expect clearer skies.

02:26Winds will fall light.

02:28Expect also a frost across many areas with some fog patches to start the day.

02:34That fog will be slow to clear before the wind picks up.

02:36And yet again, that wet weather arrives across Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales, the west

02:42country by lunchtime into the afternoon, sweeping up towards the northwest of England, the far

02:47southwest of Wales.

02:48And eventually, by evening time, reaching the home counties, eastern counties of England.

02:53Here's your outlook then through Saturday.

02:54It's pretty much rain or showers.

02:56Temperatures on the up though.

02:57So slightly better than the beginning of the week, 9 to 12 degrees Celsius.
