00:00Hi there.
00:01Some parts of the UK really haven't cheered up much through Monday.
00:05A lot of mist and fog has remained, and where it has remained, a lot of that will reform
00:10or thicken overnight ahead of this area of low pressure, a very large area of low pressure,
00:15which is already starting to turn things breezy, cloudy and showery towards the south and south-west.
00:23We're going to see a change in the weather in the south and south-west compared with
00:27recent days as that low pressure approaches, and the first signs of that, some wet weather.
00:32Moving into Cornwall, eventually Devon and then other coastal counties of England, perhaps
00:36parts of South Wales as well overnight.
00:39With this zone of cloudier conditions into South Wales, the south of England and the breeze
00:44waking up, generally mist and fog free here.
00:48The most dense areas of fog will be through parts of Mid and North Wales into parts of
00:53Northern England, especially through, say, Lincolnshire, parts of Yorkshire, the Midlands, East Anglia,
00:59where the fog will either remain or just thicken and spread a bit more widely overnight.
01:04So some poor visibilities, less than 100 millimetres in places, yellow fog warning in force.
01:10Further north again, you wouldn't rule out mist and fog patches across parts of Scotland,
01:15other parts of Northern England and Northern Ireland, but they'll be more isolated.
01:18And it will be cold where we get clear spells in the north, temperatures dipping in some
01:23sheltered parts to minus 3 to minus 5 Celsius.
01:26Meanwhile, rain spreads into Shetland and Orkney by the end of the night.
01:30This is a cold front which will eventually introduce colder weather across much of the UK.
01:36But there's a pincer movement going on on Tuesday with one system moving up from the
01:41south, one coming in from the north.
01:43In between, some sunny spells through Scotland once any isolated mist and fog patches have
01:47lifted.
01:48And the foggy areas through central parts tending to lift through the day.
01:52And because we've got thicker cloud rolling in over the top from the south, but it's not
01:57going to especially brighten up.
01:58We've got a lot of grey skies to look forward to, I think, through the central zone as well
02:02as increasingly damp weather.
02:04Some brighter colours there indicating some heavier rain at times, especially the southwest
02:09through the morning and later in the afternoon.
02:11The breeze picking up, that's going to make it feel cold.
02:14So yeah, 11 to 13 Celsius in some parts, but with that easterly breeze not feeling pleasant,
02:21along with those outbreaks of rain.
02:23Northern England, Scotland, Northern Ireland mostly dry, but we do have these showers in
02:26the far north of Scotland.
02:27And some brighter weather, some sunny spells at least for central and southern Scotland
02:31for a time.
02:32Those showers push south across the northern half of Scotland during the night on Tuesday night
02:37into Wednesday.
02:39And we've got a cold wind direction, winds from the Arctic at this point.
02:44So again, a frosty night where we've got some sheltered spots and clear skies across northern
02:49areas.
02:50Meanwhile, across many parts of England and Wales, a lot of cloud overnight.
02:53Outbreaks of rain on and off.
02:55Heavy at times for southern areas.
02:57And as a result, temperatures are staying up.
03:00And less foggy, at least, for the start of Armistice Day.
03:05And Wednesday morning itself, looking really dreary across England and Wales.
03:10A lot of clouds, a lot of cloud, outbreaks of rain tending to fizzle away through the day
03:15because winds are changing across many parts of the UK, helping to shift weather fronts
03:20away from the south, but also introducing this colder feel across many parts of the country,
03:26especially the north where we've got further outbreaks of rain in the north of Scotland,
03:29but also some sunny spells.
03:30That northerly wind will eventually push colder air in across most of the UK and brighter skies,
03:39at least for a time later this week.
03:41Full details on that can be found on the Met Office YouTube channel.
03:44Claire Nazir has this week's week-ahead forecast.
03:47Don't miss it.
