00:00Hello there, welcome to your evening weather forecast from the Met Office and it's been
00:05quite a chilly end to Sunday, a northwesterly flow across the UK, but it's all changed as
00:11we head into Monday. The Atlantic systems move back in, winds turn to a southerly direction
00:16and eventually as we head towards the middle of the week, high pressure starts to build
00:20across the UK, temperatures in the south in particular rising well above average. More
00:27Sunday evening, a cold end to the day, frequent heavy showers, blustery showers across all
00:33parts of the country. Showers will be heavy at times, the risk of some hail and thunder
00:37and falling as snow over the higher ground of parts of Northern Ireland, Northern England
00:42and Scotland as well, perhaps two to five centimetres, a little more across the Scottish
00:46mountains. But during the early hours, showers will tend to fade across parts of England and
00:51Wales and under the clear skies we'll see temperatures drop down close to freezing, so some icy stretches
00:57possible, particularly in the north where those showers continue. The winds stay blustery around
01:02western coasts and a patchy frost in the east where winds will fall lightest. So a bright
01:07start on Monday morning, frequent showers though across the north, particularly Scotland where
01:13they will still be wintry over the Scottish mountains, but the cloud will increase as the
01:17morning progresses and into the afternoon with outbreaks of rain pushing north eastwards across
01:21many parts of the UK, though southern counties of England will generally be dry with some bright
01:27spells developing at times. The rain could be heavy, particularly across the hills of Northern
01:31England or western parts of Scotland and the winds still brisk, but coming in from a southwesterly
01:36direction those temperatures will be higher compared to Sunday, reaching double figures for the vast
01:41majority of us, 12 or 13 degrees in any brighter skies in the far south. The rain through Monday
01:48evening continues to push its way north eastwards and then we're generally in a broad warm sector
01:53across the whole of the UK, so it stays cloudy overnight into Tuesday morning. Outbreaks of rain
01:58and drizzle in places and staying blustery around the coast too, and with that southerly breeze it will
02:04keep temperatures much higher compared to recent nights. Generally a frost-free night, lows are between
02:09eight and nine Celsius for many, just down to around four or five degrees perhaps under the clear skies of
02:15northeast Scotland. So it does mean Tuesday morning will be a grey start for many outbreaks of rain and
02:21drizzle some hill fog in places, and then through the day a band of rain will bring some cloud and
02:27heavy rain to parts of Northern Ireland, northwest Scotland through the day. But the skies break and
02:32we see some sunshine developing across southeast England into the afternoon, and here we'll see
02:38temperatures lifting 14, 15 Celsius, but southerly winds for all 12 or 13 degrees, so starting to feel
02:44on the warm side in that sunshine. If we take a look at Wednesday as that high pressure starts to
02:50build,
02:50we'll see quite a misty start in places, a weather front bringing some cloud across parts of North
02:56Wales into Northern England, Northern Ireland through the day, but plenty of sunshine across
03:00England and Wales, sunny spells for Scotland, but the vast majority of the UK will be dry
03:04and those temperatures rising in that sunshine up to close to 20 Celsius across southeast England.
03:11UV levels also starting to rise, we're reaching moderate across central and southern parts of the UK in that
03:18sunshine three or four on the UV levels there, so it is worth putting on some sun cream if you
03:24are
03:24enjoying the sunshine by the middle of the week. So if you'd like more information on that and how long
03:30the sunshine may last, you can find more information on our website. See you again soon.
