00:00 Hello, good afternoon. We'll hold on to rather unsettled weather across the UK over the next
00:04 few days. We'll also see some outbreaks of rain at times, but stay mild for the time
00:07 being at least. This weather front is taking outbreaks of rain away from the south east
00:11 of England. A small ridge of high pressure building in briefly overnight tonight, but
00:15 further weather systems moving in from the west and these will maintain outbreaks of
00:18 rain and fairly blustery conditions across the UK at times too.
00:22 So back to the detail for this afternoon. Outbreaks of rain clearing from the south
00:25 east as we go into the first part of the afternoon. Elsewhere it's a case of sunshine, a few
00:29 showers around, particularly towards the south, but plenty of bright weather around. A little
00:33 bit breezy too, but very mild for the time of year. Temperatures ranging from 11 or 12
00:38 degrees towards the north there, that's the mid 50s in Fahrenheit. Up to 14 or 15 down
00:42 towards the south and south east. 15 is 59 in Fahrenheit.
00:47 As we go into the evening and during the overnight period, showers will tend to ease from the
00:50 south and south east fairly quickly and we'll see plenty of clear weather around, some mist
00:54 and fog patches forming, particularly across Wales and the south west of England. Whereas
00:58 towards the north and west, outbreaks of rain working their way in from the west across
01:01 Scotland and Northern Ireland, reaching Wales and the north of England by the end of the
01:05 night, with blustery showers then tucking in towards the far north west by the morning
01:09 tomorrow. Temperature wise, well falling lower than 4 or 5 degrees towards the north, 5 Celsius
01:15 there is 41 in Fahrenheit, so generally frost free and temperatures holding up in the south
01:19 at near 8 or 9 degrees. As for Monday, well outbreaks of rain continue
01:23 their journey south eastwards across England and Wales, that band of rain weakening on
01:27 the while, so fairly patchy rain for the south east by the lunchtime period. Whereas towards
01:31 the north and west, it's a day of sunshine and showers. Showers very blustery, quite
01:35 heavy towards the north and west of Scotland, with some more general outbreaks of rain reaching
01:40 the west of Scotland by the very end of the afternoon. Temperatures stay mild, perhaps
01:44 a bit cooler in the north than on Sunday, but still up to 9 to 11 Celsius, but peaking
01:48 once again at 14 or 15 degrees down towards east south east.
