Remaining relatively cloudy across the country into the evening. Few breaks in southwest England, Wales, and northeast England, where we will see coldest temperatures overnight, as well as the potential for mist to develop in the early hours of Friday. Elsewhere, some areas of patchy rain and drizzle in western regions. Strong wind and rain persists for northwest Scotland overnight, slowly sinking south and weakening to effect much of central Scotland, giving way to clearer skies in the far north - This is the Met Office UK Weather forecast for the evening of 31/10/24.

00:00Hi there, Thursday brought some sunny skies, north east England, parts of southern England
00:05and south Wales saw the best of any cloud breaks, but otherwise it's remained relatively
00:11cloudy across the country and we keep a lot of that cloud cover overnight. Increasingly
00:16wet weather pushing into the northern isles, the north and north west of Scotland, some
00:21heavy rain for a time as a weather front sinks south accompanied by strong winds. Then the
00:25winds change direction bringing colder air into the far north, hence the lower temperatures
00:30by the start of Friday. Otherwise it's 11 or 12 Celsius for most, but in some places
00:35where we've got the cloud breaks overnight, 4 or 5 degrees and a few mist patches first
00:40thing. Certainly a colder feel for Shetland and Orkney, but brighter skies here, albeit
00:44with one or two showers passing through. Then brighter skies emerging for the far north
00:50of the mainland of Scotland as the rain sinks south during Friday. It is really fizzling
00:55out but it's increasingly damp across central and then later south east Scotland. Elsewhere
01:00one or two drizzly showers for the north west of England, north Wales, northern Ireland
01:05where we've got mist first thing in the south that will tend to clear. We keep a lot of
01:09cloud but there will be some cloud breaks, again north east England, parts of the south,
01:13those cloud breaks coming and going through the day. So some sunshine at times, otherwise
01:18a lot of cloud and a slightly colder day compared with recent days, 14 or 15 Celsius. Now we
01:25end Friday and go into Saturday morning with the front in the north pivoting so that it's
01:30straddling central and south east Scotland into the north east of England. Drizzle here,
01:36cold in the far north east, otherwise generally cloudy skies and a mild start to Saturday.
01:43Now Saturday brings more cloud pushing into the far north of Scotland, some drizzly rain
01:48associated with that as well and some light showers down the eastern coast of England
01:53as well as the far south coast, 13 or 14 Celsius, a colder feel compared with recent
01:59days. Temperature is not far from average for the time of year mind you. Higher pressure
02:03is going to set up shop to the east of the UK during the rest of the weekend and into
02:08the start of next week. That means a southerly air flow, it means a lot of cloud again but
02:14a better chance I think of some sunshine for southern areas certainly on Monday and it's
02:19going to feel slightly colder as well. But otherwise it's staying largely dry for most
02:24of us as that high pressure clings on. We'll keep you updated right here on our YouTube
02:28channel. Bye bye.
