00:01Hi there.

00:02Storm Bram is slowly filling and moving to the north of the UK, but still likely to bring

00:08strong winds for many, and particularly northern Scotland, the risk of further impacts from

00:13wind gusts through the rest of Wednesday as it moves away.

00:17You can see the tightly packed ice bars.

00:19Those winds also bringing frequent showers into much of Scotland, some heavy, lively

00:24showers, even some rumbles of thunder, one or two showers further south across England

00:28and Wales, Northern Ireland, but these are tending to fade through the afternoon with some decent

00:32sunshine breaking through.

00:35A blustery afternoon for much of the country once again.

00:38But a mild afternoon, 13, perhaps 14 Celsius in the south, 9 to 12 Celsius further north.

00:44But those wind gusts still causing issues in the north of Scotland, particularly Lewis,

00:49Caithnest, Sutherland, Orkney, Shetland, 60 mile per hour, widely 75 in exposed locations.

00:56The wind then slowly moderating through the evening and overnight.

00:59A spell of rain moves through across northern Scotland, eventually disappearing.

01:04A lot of cloud for Scotland, Northern Ireland, Northern England, Wales and the south-west with

01:07a keen breeze continuing.

01:09But with lighter winds and clear skies further south and east, the Midlands, East Anglia

01:15and the south-east, clear night, but one or two mist patches.

01:19And we'll see cloud encroach from the word go tomorrow.

01:24One area of cloud creeping up from the channel across many southern parts of the country.

01:29And another area of cloud moving into the west associated with a weather front.

01:33This bringing out breaks of rain to Western Scotland, Northern Ireland, the far west of

01:36Wales and the west of Cornwall.

01:38A breeze picking up as well, but it's another mild afternoon, particularly where we've got

01:41some sunshine continuing.

01:43The Midlands, Eastern England, for example.

01:46However, this weather front out to the west, which is bringing some spells of wet weather,

01:51is going to be slow moving into Thursday night.

01:54Just gradually pushing its rain into Scotland, West Wales and the south-west.

01:59Not causing as many issues obviously as Bram, but nevertheless we are going to see the weather

02:04state.

02:05Very changeable through Thursday, Friday and into the weekend itself.
